My monologue, continued
Maybe I should write a book about all this
adventures that I have been having. I have
more than enough advice for other people, but
still need some for myself. Ho!
Here is my job loss advice, continued on. Yesterday
I started to make a sandwich and didn’t get back to
blogging. It was a good sandwich with ham and lettuce
and mayo.
File for your unemployment benefits right away. My
sister told me that her friend’s husband who is a laid off
computer type from Microsoft refused to apply for
enemployment. What kind of an idiot is that. Apparently
he is too proud. But doesn’t he realize that we all pay
into unemployment functionally for the event that this
sucky thing happens. It’s like an insurance policy.
Moving on, appraise your morgage company or
lender right away and tell them about your lay off.
These days they may not care, as there are so many
houses in foreclosure, but do it anyway. The more
people you can get on your side, the better.
Now, #3 here is a big one. You have to figure out
your health insurance. Especially if your wife is
pregnant or something like that. Or if you are on
chronic medications. Just my dad’s example is
enough to scare you, isn’t it? His bills will be
coming forever after 2 surgeries.
