i used to because I actually experienced it several times. In one case, an assignment lasted 3 weeks - 3.FUCKING.WEEKS. before the subcontractor i worked for lost their govt contract. No one's job is safe anymore. After a while you become immune and stop worrying....

I don't live in fear like that because I know that the worst case scenario is that I go flat broke and end up moving back home with my parents in their $800k house in the suburbs with a pool (rent free).

Not exactly a terrible situation.

Hell no I pray I'll get fired. If I ever were fired I'd probably freak out but on a day to day basis getting fired sounds amazing. Going to work everyday blows. I value my free time so much that it's a giant silver lining to being fired.

I guess what I have is relative. I have more than most, but hardly anything compared to those with the most.

I did lose it all. I live in constant fear that I'm never going to claw my way out of it. It feels like quicksand -- the more you try to escape, the deeper you become ensnared. I'm pretty just a mess of occasional drinking binges (which at least has supplanted former nightly binges), depression, and anxiety/paranoia.

To be fair, nothing really but a shitty car and over six figures of law school debt.

But I did have a solid job, good dating life, and was able to avoid falling underwater in debt and avoid living with parents.

Now it's nothing but constant letters and calls from collectors, an even shittier car that I want to paint yellow after Saul Goodman, and living with parents.

Been unemployed for over six months now, though occasionally I'm able to pick up some small side legal work for a check or two.

Have not gone out on a single date since unemployed.

Have had a few job interviews, without ultimate success. Around a week ago had a second interview for a very promising job, but pretty sure I bombed it. Barely got any sleep; looked tired and hungover; wasn't sharp. Felt paranoid.

Got a letter from the IRS today and can't even open it.

Just have to keep plugging away and sending resumes out.

All that means absolutely nothing. Wait until you lose your loved ones early and abruptly. You'll realize your high status job is nothing. Health and family is all that really matters.

This is the best reason to have side gigs. Save a little more money, and then have something to slow the bleeding when you get canned. Also, you keep a continuous record, and you might even be able to say you left your job to develop your business
