well, not necessarily the national unemployment rate. it’s more of a local thing. Northern Nevada. well, not all of Northern Nevada -specifically my house. The unemployment rate in my house is going up to 100% at the end of October.

they finally hired a new CFO to replace me , who started yesterday. I’m hanging around for one month on a consulting contract to help him with a few projects we are in the middle of. The press release went out this morning, which is why I’m guessing why the stock market is down so much..

Anyway, so I’m back on unemployment by the end of this month.

I probably need to stock up on some cheap cat food for inexpensive dinners going forward…

also, I just checked and I can edit or quote this post just fine on safari on an iPad.

starting to think about some combination of an onlyfans page and a series of gofundme’s to supplement my retirement income.

Not sure if I should say congrats or

(re the onlyfans comment...)

[pedant hat on] You're not officially unemployed unless you are out of work but looking for work.[pedant hat off].



Congrats on the life shift!

what, are you new to the 2020s? you are referring to something called a “fact”. “Facts” are not relevant in current discourse.

Don’t forget Cameo for your supplemental income. You make videos for $$$ (or maybe really $) as a hired gun.

Don’t laugh, Mr. AM has hired “celebs” to make marketing pitches for him. It could be YOU!

Hmmmmm this is a good thought.

“Does your loved one have a birthday or special occasion coming up? Are they huge fans of elderly paunchy retired accountants? Buy your cameo from Doug now!”

I hope this doesn’t put me into another tax bracket.

I hear there's an opening on Capitol Hill...Speaker Doug has a nice ring to it...

I think I’m still too young for a career in politics. I will be in the sweet spot for running for president in about eight or nine years though.

I keep waiting for jury duty. The call never comes.

I was planning to stand out at the end of a freeway offramp with a cardboard sign that says "NFFMCo Retiree -- Anything Helps!" But all the good spots are already taken by others with the same sign.

Soon you will be wondering how you ever found time for work.
Those babes will be occupying your every minute.

I think you're just in it for the gold watches....

Let's hope this one sticks!
