Jay,
I am unemployed, gone through my retirement $ in order to live, etc. You know what I mean. It is hard to hear that money doesn't matter when the roof over my head may not be there much longer.Money doesn't buy happiness and won't make us well--as we know...but it does buy food, shelter, gas for the car and so on. I work hard to make money not matter, and have only limited success.
So, I am joining you in your rant, I totally relate to what you described, and I wish you well in the job department. Plus, living at home temporarily, imho, is nothing to be ashamed of at all. It's wonderful that you have that option, and anybody worth having as a friend will understand hard times.

P.S. I hate the term 'pity party.' I think it minimizes how bad we can legitimately feel about things sometimes, and it should be against the law to use that phrase. (a little extra rant for ya)
