Not very long after moving in to this wonderful urban townhouse, I was compelled to resign my job due to an imperious bully running the department I was mistakenly thrown into. An incompetent manager did not help things. I tried, I really did try to find a better position in that company, but to no avail. In spite of resigning, they paid me severance and covered all my benefits for the remainder of the year. Go figure.
Unfortunately the job market is awful. It took me seven months to find a contract job. For a while it was really good. Work at home, get very well paid! Then they cancelled the project after one and a half months. Now my income is zero and expenses continue apace. In two months the bank account will also be zero.
Now I have to look at jobs paying about half of what I need to keep the boat afloat.
The problem is this big and positive change has a big price tag. A two income household should cover it fine, but now we have one part time and the other no time. Not a good time.
