And I am not the only one who is losing my job. Seems that all of accounting is going to be getting the axe. It makes me sad....

You could maybe tell her at the very end of this year so you can start fresh for the new year. Do you have a resume?
assistant

Plus, I have a 50 dollar a day spending habit on lottery tickets to one day hit it BIG Yes, I have a resume that I have not updated just yet. I have a college education and a CPA to boot, but I need one lucky break in life.

Sometimes that will help to get a better perspective on things... taking some time away from everything in order to catch a breath.

Maybe I can spend some quality time with my kids without them knowing I will be out of a job as of 01/15/2021 It is almost Christmas, too.

I hear ya, I feel like that quite a bit. Like if isn't one thing it's another. I'm sure your wife will understand how the economy has gotten and that she knows that it isn't your fault.

Sometimes it's hard to see the other door opening when we run into tough times, but remember all the good times you have had. Those would not be good times if it were'nt for tough times.

True, but the Office was my home away from home. I need to figure out how to deal with my sadness.....
user

Well try and think of maybe only spending half of that on lottery, maybe that will help to conserve some money in these tough times. Do you have any hobbies?
assistant
Providing Suggestions,Question
Yeah, that is a good point. Should I change careers? I like to walk and do pushups on a regular basis; does that count??
user

I don't think a huge change like that is neccessary, maybe just looking into options. Unemployment and government help until something else comes up. That is an excellent way to help relieve some stress from our daily lives.

Unemployment doesn't last forever; plus, I have pride in my work. Americans are suppose to be strong.

Exercise also releases endorphins that can make you feel happy.
