, wouldn't you be if you were Ed.
I hate to break this to people(Ok, that is a Lie. I love to say this stuff), But it is called a JOB... J-O-B. You take what you can get. I don't care if you used to make 100K. Apparently you weren't earning your money, and they had to Fire your Worthless Ass. So you take a step down in pay, you do a lesser job, you find a 50K job that someone is dying to hire a 100K employee for. If that Fails, YOU TAKE A JOB SWEEPING FLOORS.
I have run or had a hand in managing, hundreds of companies. I KID YOU NOT! An Employee who is unwilling to sweep a Floor, Who is "ABOVE SWEEPING"... is an employee, who has no business holding a job ABOVE FLOOR SWEEPER. Those are the Lazy ones in the office, and that is why you get rid of them. The good Workers, are the ones who ROLL UP THEIR SLEEVES and get the job done. If you aren't this kind of employee for your company. YOU ARE OVER PAID, and lucky you still hold a job.

It's fascinating that, "The Media" can shed a Crocodile Tear for these people.So the solution for these people, is to take any job you can find. It is 'because you won't', that is the reason you don't have a job.
YOU WORK YOUR WAY UP THE EMPLOYMENT LADDER. Sometimes it's a step back, to take a few steps forward. WHAT YOU DON'T DO IS RUN AROUND WHINING ABOUT HOW YOU CAN'T GET THE SAME JOB AT THE SAME PAY AS YOU HAD, AND DON'T HAVE INSURANCE......YOU FREELOADER!!!
"Too Good" to take A job, they are not Qualified for.... and probably never were.
