[quote=Anonymous]My entire field was laid off essentially overnight in February with the termination of USAID. There are now thousands of us with very similar skill sets - and overlapping networks - looking for jobs. It is utterly brutal. I expect it will take well over 6 months for people to transition to new industries or retrain. As to PP’s question about how you support your family…well, you can’t. I have colleagues who are now relying on unemployment and food pantries.[/quote]
