[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We do know one person who unexpectedly lost their job a few months ago- company was doing poorly and cut like 1/3 of their staff. Just got a very similar job in less than 2 months. Also know someone who transitioned back into full-time work after being SAHP for 5+ years, got a good job within 3 months of starting to look. Don't know anyone else who has lost a job recently. So I guess there isn't a recession.[/quote] We know quite a few people who have been laid off or fired. My spouse was on the chopping block but things seem ok as of now.[/quote] If only there was some way to aggregate all of these anecdotes into a more complete and accurate picture, for policy makers to analyze and understand.[/quote] Shhhh with your nonsense, it has already been proclaimed that this thread is about “feelings.”[/quote] No but there has to be a way. I swear someone will figure out how to collect this information, someday. Alas, there is nothing we can do today except trade individual stories about friends' job prospects, and what a couple of things cost us today. Oh wait also how busy a couple of ski slopes were on a couple of days. Forgot that.[/quote] Don’t forget that we are comparing how we felt on the ski slopes during spring break to how we felt on the ski slopes two years during spring break when the world was coming out of once in a generation pandemic that was likely still curtailing travel…especially travel with children.
