I can't even begin to tell people the emotions that I have gone thru being long term unemployed.  It's been the death of my soul.
My wife has been supportive but I also know how little she thinks of me because of it.  All her friends have husbands to brag about.  I OTOH am hopelessly worthless.
There are so many reasons for why I am this way.  It was a perfect storm that I didn't see coming.  [/quote]
Keep your chin up my good man. As my father taught me - and he was a child of the depression - tough times don't last tough people do.  Never stop believing in yourself. Never. And as my eldest brother likes to tell me during tough times - don't let the bastards get you down. As for wife, demonstrate fortitude - so few people today have it - to be that shows the real character of a man.

And remember luck is where preparedness and opportunity meet so you make your own luck in life. Get in the morning, every morning, dust your self off, put on your flak jacket and go do battle.

Agree.  Would you please pound this into my soon to be ex?  [b]He is an entitled, lazy bum who can't keep a job for more than a year despite his advanced degrees and a decent job market. [/b] He blames everyone and everything else if something doesn't go his way.  He stopped taking personal responsibility for his actions years ago.  As my mom always told me, people do what they want to do.  Actions, not words.  Hence the split.  [/quote]

Wow, this sounds tough. Why can't he keep a job? Do you have kids? I wish you luck![/quote]
