[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree. You can’t be too picky. My neighbor will only accept certain roles and he’s been unemployed for 15 months now. [/quote] I’m not really that picky. I wasn’t even making 6 figures when I was laid off, and will be fine with less. I mostly want the health insurance. But once you’re in your 40s, they don’t want you for the more junior level roles. [/quote] I’m the PP and I get what you’re saying. Just because my neighbor has been picky about roles he applies for doesn’t mean he would be hired for something a bit lower on the ladder. It’s very possible he wouldn’t be. As my DH is facing layoffs now, it’s scary to think that he could be in his last decently compensated position. But that absolutely could be the truth. [/quote]
