Some people on here have recently mentioned their unemployment status. I'm curious. Who's currently unemployed, and why?

i am ive been on holiday from uni for 3 months already with on month left and no job, no money

Just finishing my degree. Must. Find. Job.

I owe unca sam like 40k.

I'm a full time student, but I only go to school from 8am until 11am everyday.

I'm only 18, but I too, am unemployed.

Got laid off from a start-up company last April. I think they went under soon after, which makes me feel great. I was on unemployment from June to Dec. Been very picky about choosing next job.

Next employer is dragging thier feet on hiring me. But luckily I'm scraping by playing gigs every week.

But now I'm kinda looking forward to the 1 year mark. That is if I don't kill myself out of bordem before then.

whoops

Even I've got a job right now. And I need to keep it for at least an other two months.

It's kind of crappy cos I'm effectively working for nothing at the moment. All my wages are paying off my debts. I just posted a £312.68 cheque today to my credit card company.

That was a hard envelope to drop in the post box, I can tell you.

"I'm a student."

I could use some work, though. I'll get to looking for it.

Been unemployed since November. Mainly because 52 million assholes decided to vot for some other assholes, and it looks like Dems are in permanent minority status. Also, because I am a lazy drunk who wants things handed to me on a silver platter, and then complains about what is handed to me. (i.e. I ain't takin no campaign not in GA or AL) I have been meaning to do something constructive since the week of January 1st, but really can't be bothered.

Oops. Sentor needs to check that password before he post. Saw that Bloor was unemployed and almost had a heart attack.

Edit: There ya go.

AKA......UNEMPLOYABLE.

just recently got back to work.
i "had" unemployment, but for some reason i chose not to collect on it.
i should have.

I'm unemployed, and have been for a while. I quit my job down in St. Louis and moved back to Chicago because my mom got really sick. So I was just taking care of her and spending time with her the past year. Now I'm finally starting to look for a job again, so I can save up and move back down to St. Louis.

The only thing worse than having a job is looking for one.

i moved to a new city with no prospects. i'm a fool. so, now i'm looking again and it is slow...

With apologies to robotboy...
(I think it was robotboy's idea originally)

Is that it? my debt to income ratio is astronomical, and no i didn't even blow my $$$ on a top tier school.

It seems like a lot, given that I spent 3 years making payments on my BA before I went back for the PhD and am considered to be 'fully funded' by my current program (and perhaps would be, if I lived almost anywhere else in the US).

Sob.

Anyhow, off to an interview tomorrow. Hopefully I'll be employed in under a month.

i think i might have just gotten a job sort of thing. for a photography company.

I got my job through Monster.com!

(So do I get to be in a commercial now?)

'Fraid this will make me Obner-scarce from now on. Dammit, I've got a backlog of hundreds of avatars I haven't gotten to use yet!

I'm unemployed, but that's what happens when you quit.

But as a poor graduate student, I must find employment soon so that I will be able to continue my studies.

Yeah, except high school related stuff. Dances, sports, events.
