Good. When I lost my job I took like 8 months off for myself, took 4 months worth of unemployment, got like +20k so my bills were paid for a long time, and had a blast. Definitely good for my well-being.


Make the most of it, op. You'll be glad you took the time for yourself, guaranteed.

There but for the grace of God go I.

Every big player in my field is on hiring freeze, and the place I work for has stopped re-hiring temps. My manager doesn't like me and a ****** in the group does the same functions I do for a quarter of my pay. I'm one bad day away from getting pink-slipped myself.

One day you're going to be dead. Won't matter if you were an incel or a billionaire. I don't mean that to depress you, but to motivate you to live on your own terms because it really won't matter in the end (assuming you're not harming others)

So you definitely should enjoy your precious time off. It would do you well and you can brainstorm the next move for yourself.

With the amount of posting you were doing during office hours, i'm not surprised. I had trouble keeping up with your incel thread but you were posting away without a care.

You better start looking for a job like crazy and just say you're still employed through the month of November.




Having a stable job with income was the only way you were going to get out of Inceldom and now you don't have that.
There are girls who find career income attractive when they hit 33 and don't care about looks/height anymore.

But you are really fukking yourself over by being a whiny bitch.

I hope you're able to find a new role that it healthier and more enjoyable for you. You should definitely be interviewing them more than they interview you to make sure you find something that is more tolerable if that's the route you choose to go. Maybe a smaller company would suit you better.

Also when you go in for interviews, peek into offices to make sure they don't have funkos on their desks lol

Can confirm. Recently quit my job, but promotions were released prior.

They promoted a VP to Director without selling a single product - Big ****gy initiatives guy
They passed over our top producing VP who isnt bought into the ****gy initiatives to promote the other guy
They didnt even entertain our top producing associate for a promo

In our sub group, which had the VP to director promotion, I was the leading producer and I was told I needed to engage outside of producing in order to see any promotion opportunities, all while having a capped bonus. I quit that shyt on the spot.

enjoy your time off OP, but definitely make sure you have some income if your savings arent in check. I'm at month 4 and thinks arent dire yet... but I should have changed my spending habits a little more when the big checks stopped coming.

Im not an idiot, ive been keeping track of all these layoffs for months. In fact, my company just had a first round of layoffing a few people TWO WEEKS ago.


Of course they told us 'thats it guys its over now, we just need to recalibrate but now we're good'.

Not even 2 weeks later just lol.

This is why people 'quiet quit'. Corporate America is a disease

in this economy.....my plan is to rot until the new year. Things will probably just get worse so I'm likely on that NEET life for the foreseeable future.

Sucks, but I can game and relax. If it comes to it, I'll off myself when my money runs out. My life isnt exactly worth struggling for.

I did too starting Monday. I have a part time job at fed ex. Right now they have holiday incentives and will let you work as much as you want. I’m going to try and get unemployment and 30 hours there. That would be sweet

That's what i'm worried about is almost every company is clown world now. But anything will be better than that unless it's a retail or a factory. Funny thing is i used to love my job and had no anxiety there pre clown world. What i do know is these people are kicking the hard working honest people out the door as quick as possible because i'm not the only one experiencing it. It's been ongoing for years. People are getting more greedy and aggressive out there man srs.

Yeah people are absolutely on edge now and it's scary af. People talk about crime but sometimes I think it's less about law enforcement and more about the morale among society. People have nothing to loose and are beyond frustrated so they lash out.

Companies just virtue single. Look how many companies literally shut down operations in Russia just to act like they're being righteous. It's not even about being productive or bringing good service. It's just about making a statement and having an image. "Oh look at us, we have the most gays and most women/minorities/etc." Meanwhile prices are going up to make up for lower volume and meet earnings.

You idiot. Your only chance is to network and apply like crazy for this month of November by pretending you're still employed.

You can rot if you're unable to find anything by December.

You have to at least TRY.

It'll be opportunity to lay some ground work for networking/building relationships. You can hit those same people up in 6 months, or they'll think about you when there is an opening.


Honestly, this is testament to your personality. Your personality with dating is to GIVE UP AND ROT when facing resistance and so thats the same personality with your career. A medium-hard obstacle and you GIVE UP AND ROT. I'm not saying this won't be difficult, but you have your best chance right now for the next year or two, to pretend you're still employed and build some relationships - AND you're not doing it.


Other Miscers would fight like crazy even if there's a 10% chance while that window of opportunity is closing.
Not trying to kick you while you're down, but this GIVE UP AND ROT problem is the main problem of your life. With your time off, you would be wise to put full effort in addressing this with your therapist. SRS.

This is true. My company is currently on a hiring freeze.

I work in the finance dept, so I already know who's about to get the axe. It's gonna be at least a 20% reduction in every department. And all temps will let go as well.


This is a coordinated hiring freeze across all companies in America through at least December.
Everything I post is satire.

Ughhh why? Yes, I give up and rot. I dont care. I want to play videogames and fap.

Why should I be in a rush to get back on the grind? for what? I have no kids, I have no women. I dont really have a reason to care about this and I dont. I've got some savings to get by for over a year. This is what its for

Because by having a stable career and income is how you get women when you're older.

So sorry that you're having trouble with dating when you're young - that's every male not named Chad.


Your best chance to find a new job is while you're still employed. You still have that window to pretend you're employed for the month of November. Your GIVE UP AND ROT attitude is why we know your Incel Dating Threads are just your own fault and not because you're "short and ugly." Its just your GIVE UP AND ROT attitude always in play. Good luck with that.
