How long have you been without a job? I've been unemployed for just over a month, and I have no clue how people can go months and months without a job. Like, how are y'all surviving?

At the current moment, I’ve been unemployed for four months (August will be five months).
I don’t have an apartment, I live with family. That helps the budget (a little). The biggest cringe is paying $301 for insurance.

Toronto banks: remote or not? They sometimes post jobs where it doesn’t say it’s remote, but no branch/ location/address either. Then you get an interview and they tell you it’s remote/hybrid(1-2-3days, take your pick)/on-site. So, if you work at TD, Scotia, RBC, could you let everybody know in the comments what’s the deal for each? Are you remote, on-site, hybrid of some sort?
