I just got home a few minutes ago, cops everywhere, the coroner's van parked in the street
My downstairs neighbor, in his 50's, not an educated man, hung himself.
Lost his menial job on the night crew of a supermarket of many years to an argument with his supervisor. Soon after unable to find work, his girlfriend of many years and their daughter left him because he had become abusive and argumentative. After the first year, we noticed he had begun drinking, parking on the sidewalk, talking slurred when we saw him on his deck. The last time I talked to him a couple of months ago, he had said he was out of money and he would have to leave here soon because he couldn't' find a job, a menial job for an uneducated soul. He didn't know how to use a computer, he was amazed at what I do. He went out many mornings, I've seen him nicely dressed in a tie, but I guess he just didn't fit the profile for corporate America.
They must have put the eviction notice on his door today because it wasn't there this morning when I left for work. The only reason they found him was a visit from his sister late this afternoon. A visit to give him some money to help him out. (I talked to her before I sat down to write this tonight).
Another victim of the recession dies alone. No money, no job, no hope. His cry for help unheard.
It just sucks.
Godspeed Woody. You deserved better

9. ^ This!
Not so very long ago, Woody could have found a decent job in manufacturing. It might have been hard work. It might have been repetitive work. But it would have paid him a true living wage. Not a subsistence wage...a living wage, one that would have allowed him to enjoy some frivolous things, to put something away for retirement in a paid-for home that was his.
Now? Those jobs are gone. And the responsible parties could give a shit...
DUmmies just keep saying this, over and over, yet despite the 0conomy and the best efforts of the jug-eared muslim to destroy the country, America is still by far the biggest manufacturing power in the world.
Aside from a handful of losers like the DUmmies, we are still the most prosperous and privileged people in the world.

6. Tragically, I expect to hear stories like that more and more in the years to come.
So do I, and I wish that worthless DUmmy Elad would get off his ass and make that Dead DUmmy forum happen.
There will be lots of new candidates for that group coming soon.

30. Oh, I think the under-40's know they're getting the shitty end of the stick, too.
But if you're older and you've been laid off, there's not much hope of every finding another halfway decent job.

44. I read similar..
It said that middle aged white men had a higher suicide rate. Not so for black or Hispanic men or women. I think it also said suicide for middle aged white women was slightly up. Sorry, No link...
0bamaites are happy on welfare.

18. In the last few weeks, quite a few very well educated, highly experienced....
BRILLIANT souls have written me after I shared a wee bit of my situation as far as my struggle publicly.
I would never have thought these people were struggling. Their resumes are extraordinary.
Yet they are in their 50s and cannot find work. Not work commensurate with their experience. ANY work.
They no longer have a safety net.
It's brutal out there for so many. And so much of it is unnecessary, as the rich get richer...
Each one mentioned suicide, as they feel they are literally worth more dead than alive.
Hahaha!
Jump! Jump! Jump!
Elad, hurry up, dammit!

35. There are a LOT of people that fit the "Al Bundy" profile...
They were just coming out with pocket calculators when they were in High School and they consider computers to be for nerds.
Suddenly, they are out of work after 20 or more years and nobody wants them. It's like trying to find work for a blacksmith.
This is one of the main reasons we need to lower the retirement age to 55.
Why 55? Why not think big? Think like democrats! Retirement for everyone!

42. A great sickness has descended upon our world
Such an awful thing, to lose all Hope.
All because of a clutch of Predators whose avarice knows no bounds.
The Predators are a piss-poor ice hockey team in red state hell.
Compared to ice hockey, soccer makes sense.
