Instead of directly quoting what he took issue with and addressing it he made a passive aggressive post directed to no one in particular and as is evident above is continuing to post weird incoherent stuff.

I was unemployed for about 3 and a half months in 2017, got laid off from my previous job when they let the entire development team go so they could relocate down south and hire recent graduates and pay them less. between severance and unemployment checks I got by fine, but with another month or two of no work I would've been in trouble

anyway I usually spent 1-2 hours every morning doing job search stuff and then did housework and played video games for the rest of the day. it was actually pretty sweet at first, I started to get restless though after a while and was glad to go back to work.

I've never been out a job for more than a week for the last 15 years, save for a couple months I was settling into school away from home. It isn't exactly saying much as I've only worked in food and automotive. But I am an excellent interviewee

Same, but that may be changing soon if things at work keep on the way they are going (e.g. layoffs). I suck at being interviewed as well so yah me!

Mmmm,
You smell like Lysol Wipes.
I've been self employed with a couple different business most of my life and those went pretty well until I got bored. Took a regular sales job for a bit and got laid off when the company overextended itself. Spent a year and a half dodging job offers because due to some mathematical quirks in the system my unemployment was pretty good so I took an unethical vacation. Spent the time sleeping in, playing video games, and when I would get bored I'd travel around visiting family (No not couch surfing) and doing some local community volunteer work. It was a nice break and I highly recommend it.

Now I work in the public sector, which is a lot like the whole getting paid for doing nothing unemployment gig, but with killer benefits.

Graduated right when the last recession hit my area and there were no jobs in my poo poo town so I was unemployed for like six months.
The first few weeks felt like a vacation but as savings dried up and bills piled up that feeling went away pretty quick.

The only other time I've been unemployed longer than a week or so in-between jobs that I had already lined up the time off for was a few years back. Right from the get to I was like, "aw gently caress not this again."

Basically all your posts in here seem to be coming from some dimension where I'm assuming they're tonally in line with the rest of the thread, or make some sense.

I haven't worked all year but I stumbled into a decent amount of money so now I have zero motivation to be not unemployed and that frankly kind of terrifies me because eventually I'll spend it all and then be hosed. I should go back to school.

I wish I was unemployed. I have plenty of money saved. Barring unexpected emergency expenditures, I could probably live for close to two years maintaining my current lifestyle even if I weren't making a dime for that whole duration.

Really I think I just need a break for a few months. Like a sabbatical. But I'm American and not in education so I can't do that and if I leave there is no way my job is waiting for me when I come back. I just want a break.
Same. But my spouse already thinks I'm lazy even though I'm just severely burned out, so there's no way taking an unpaid break is gonna fly.

I just keep hoping I'm in the next round of layoffs. My spouse says I could just quit and get another job, but in the words of my hero Peter Gibbons, "I don't think I'd like another job."

I was working a dece job and saving a lot of money. I eventually took a generous lump sum buyout and have been living of my savings and going to school debt free for the last 8 months and could keep going for at least a couple more years of I felt like it because my rent is cheap despite not having a roommate. Being unemployed owns bones and I have way more time to do stuff that I couldn't do before because I was always stuck working. I'm in my 20s
