Can I just say how much I

Hugs. Have you read Barbara Ehrenreich's book about unemployed white collar workers? Because one could argue that being angry is different from complaining, and the book made *me* angry, and I'm not even looking for a job!

Good luck either way, and there's definitely good that can come of facing life more positively (much as I've started focusing my wishes on my neighbors winning a huge amount of money in the lottery as a way of solving my irritations with the neighborhood)

LOL about the neighbors winning the lottery. I assume you're hoping they'd move when they won. Otherwise imagine what they could do with money.....
