Hmmm, they forget to look at you and think how lucky they are to be employed, and to hope they won't be in your place someday soon.

@Serenitree I totally agree. They also take things for granted. Nothing lasts forever though. Nothing good, nothing bad. Sometimes their jobs can be taken away unexpectedly.

@Cat05 And they often are. Through no fault of their own, they are
*down-sized* or made redundant, and that's it they're out of work.

@Serenitree right. I feel like in this economy, it makes the employment much tighter and competitive. More like a lottery ticket than a job these days. I feel like many people look at you with six eyes from just because you’re unemployed and looking, you’re not worthy of a human being or friend.
