    Anyone else feel like this? My girl been unemployed for over a year now, her friend been unemployed for a grip now house and bills paid for by her grandparents, my friends all ain't been back since covid started. My sister quit her job and don't gotta worry about s*** but getting me my rent money, ect ect

    And yet here I am, ain't had 2 weeks off since highschool. And s*** didn't bother me before, that's just life right? But seeing so many people out travelling, doing whatever they want, living their best lives, it's getting to a nigga. Where is the way out of this? How do I get that free time to actual clear my head and think about some s*** other than work? This s*** sucks fr, I'm busting my ass everyday getting snaps from girl of her playing the game. I'm busting my ass day in and day out I gotta hear about her friend taking a vacation to FL. Covid was like the best chance of getting out of this hell for at least a little, and instead everyone at my job got laid off but me, essential worker bullshit..

    Where do you live? It’s booming out here and people are getting hired left and right

    When you’re saying unemployed are you talking about careers? Seems everywhere in my area is hiring to the point where they’ll pay you a bonus if you are on for a certain period of time. Hoping for the best for your fam tho man

    I don't have a problem getting a job, I'm saying it's disheartening seeing so many people with unlimited free time while I'm shackled to a job day in and day out.

    I feel you @op. My mom got laid off from her job of 15 years last year and has made little to no effort to find a new job. She just drinks almost everyday and it’s gotten to the point where I’m working on saving up to move the f*** out.

    People are depressed and their identity has been stripped from them. Lots of folks have woken up to the fact that they don't mean s*** to these companies and have no motivation to go back to work and honestly how can you blame them when u look at the lack of concern employers have shown the past 13 months?

    Nah fr, and I don't blame niggas one bit. If I could get by how they do, I would too. But I'm not fortunate enough to live off someone like everyone in op.

    You’re right about that and I can see it in my Mom after how much loyalty she had with her company and how they just completely discarded her. S*** was disgusting and although I don’t like the fact people are abusing unemployment benefits to go on vacations 24/7 etc, some of these employers get what they f***ing deserve for treating employees like robots.

    Seriously, the pandemic created a huge surge of niggas that just said f*** working all together. And like, that's honestly great for them. I remember when everyone at my job was getting laid off stupid b****es that been doing the same position for 20 yrs talking about how 'lucky' I am to keep working while mf sitting at home making more than me. S*** depressing dog.
