[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How certain are you that he would be laid off? And how realistic are these other jobs? If it is unknown, I’d say that he’s just using the other ideas as a coping mechanism. He doesn’t want to restart his career elsewhere. My wife and I had a conversation with our extended families when everything with DOGE was really uncertain for my agency. Her thought was that my skills would translate well elsewhere and I’d certainly find a job. I think the opposite - my career is extremely niche and employers aren’t looking for “skills”, they want experience and results. So, your view on what might be possible for him may be optimistic in this white collar environment.[/quote] Not OP, and this is totally fair — but he at least needs to try before resorting to “I will be a 48 year old DJ and not be home on the weekends.”[/quote]
