Hello All,
I was a contractor for one company for 9 years. In that time I was making an excellent hourly rate, also I had other offers. However they were also temp/contractor positions and making a very low hourly rate. It has been 1 year and a half and still seeking employment. Now my savings and money are gone. How do you deal with the reality of possible eviction, abd still looking for work???
