Same here, both unemployed. Two small kids
Could you move out of the US ?
Blue-collar is a solid choice, but depending on what you want to do, will need to find apprenticeships or learning/certifications. Many are facing this uncertainty right now, unemployed and finding it incredibly hard to find a job in their field.
Sorry that you’re going through this. I can’t even imagine both me and my partner not having an income. Do you what you need to do, and good luck!!
Tough Love Moment:
Stop this pity party! Get up and make it happen. If you need to get a crap job to pay bills - do it - but don’t make excuses you won’t have enough time to look for other jobs … that’s lazy complete BS! No one else is going to make it happen - so, quit feeling sorry for yourself and posting on social media for encouragement. If waking up and looking at your wife and kids isn’t enough motivation to get after it … then re-evaluate the situation.
First of all, I'm sorry for what you're going through. Having one person unemployed is difficult but two feels impossible, I'm sure. And unfortunately, as adults, there's nobody around to just tell you what to do when things get hard. My best advice would be to come up with a couple of different resume options for the different jobs you're willing to do, and set a goal for how many applications you and your wife want to do a day. Whether it's 20, 30, 50. Set a goal and stick to it. Keep each other accountable.
So sorry that you're going through this. It's not easy at all to experience what is happening with you... but stay strong! Something will definitely work out.
