Nothing nothing nothing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hate it!!
-
All of the same things that are fun when employed.
-
being able to beat off whenever you want!!!!!!
-
Nothing. I hate it and there are no jobs around here! Ugh I have to get out of this stupid town. I wish I had more money so I could move.
-
here in germany? They pay for your housing, and they pay you 350 euro (500 dollars apr.) forever if you dont find a job.
-
More party time? But its also ironic because you wont have money to party for too long so im gonna take a guess and say: not alot, it would suck.
-
Being your own boss. The possibility that you will come up with a great way to earn money without having to work for someone else. The challenge of finding a way to support yourself with a job.
-
Sleeping in.
-
drinking on mondays
-
Hmm. I would most likely say nothing. Although i've never experienced unemployment. But I like residency & I think it's fun & I enjoy working so yeah nothing would be my answer.
-
I would say - nothing. Although, I was unemployed by choice for about 10 years (stay at home mom) and that was great. As for being unemployed NOT by choice...that would suck, especially now when you don't know if or when the next job might be availible.
-
6 months of unemployment checks, baby!!!
-
your booty call can arrive during normal business hours ... LoLz
-
Waking up and saying IT'S TIME TO GET UP AND GO TO WORK, then smiling, rolling over and saying "JUST KIDDING!"
-
you will always smell the sweet arroma of debt...yeah debt
-
The first few weeks, when you don't have to set the alarm to get up every morning, and you can go anywhere and do anything you please, and don't have to deal with the drama at your last job any more, is fun for awhile. But once your savings are gone, the bills are piling up, and the rent is due, it doesn't seem as if you'll ever recover.
-
Not having to set up your alarm clock everyday.
-
Imagining others at work while you're still laying in bed.
-
You can do whatever you want. But the thing is, you won't get paid for it.
-
the hours are good. casual dress code. your options are open and numerous. you get to learn about whats important in life.
-
Not a single thing, I'm ready to graduate and start working again already!
-
Not a thing in my experience, the 2 times I was ever unemployed I was working more hours, longer days than a job just trying to find a job and I didn't even get paid for it! Get up early, hit the pavement looking for jobs, doing interview after interview, drop more resumes and applications and the come home and research more jobs, hope someone calls back soon, hope it isn't that one crappy job you applied for as a "just in case nothing else comes through" job and then fret over money......not fun at all...the only thing worse than losing a crappy job is trying to find another one
-
I have no idea. I've worked ever since age 14-years-old and I lied about my age to get the job! My physician had to perform a physical examination and I just knew he would stop me due to my age but he didn't mention it. To answer your question, I wouldn't know. I have never been without a job. :)
-
nothing...I'd prefer working!
-
Meeting new and interesting people while standing in line?
-
Going to the bar for breakfast!
-
I gotta say it was fun while it was warmer out. Now that its cold not so fun. Been unemployed this tyme goin on like 4 momths. This is only the 2nd tyme been out of work. The first tyme was for like 3 weeks. Just long enough 1 check then a shitty retal job. Which was my last job, the one I was let go from after 9 months. I sill get paid tho. So thats cool. Use those unemployment benifits man use'em. If u dont sumbody else will. I gots a job interview tommorrow.

When you've enuf 'cake', nearly everything. Of course, except feeling useful, able to give more than you take, likely harming future employment opportunities, drinkin' too much, doin' too much dope, havin' your little sister call you a 'loser', having no response when everyone asks, "What do you do?", etc., etc. Other than those, it's cool! ;-)

1) Going to the unemployment office and giving the administrators 5 copies of your resume to apply for that $8 an hour job you saw being advertised. 2) Having an official reason to mooch off of your family and friends. "Hey, I went to the Unemployment Office today! I was productive!" 3) Filling out a short autobiography for unemployment benefits. Don't forget your dates of employment-that's a felony. 4) Telling people you don't have money to go out for drinks or a movie, and convincing them to come over your house to watch a movie instead. (Just as much fun)

If you were not living paycheck to paycheck and have a little something to fall back on...if you weren't that crazy about your previous job...then being unemployed gives you the time to look for something better-suited to you...time to investigate thoroughly various companies..check around, check them out. When you don't like your current job, but you're working 40 hours a week, it's really hard to take proper time to find another job. Sometimes you grab something in desperation and it ends up putting you in a worse situation than the one you left. Happy New Year and Happy Tuesday, h.j.! Mahalo!

You get to spend more time at the Answerbag. Asking and answering questions.

there is nothing fun about being unemployed
-
You can watch TV the whole day, or watch a bunch of movies from sunrise to sunset. You will also realize how much your family loves you. I survived five months of joblessness after college graduation because of the financial and moral support given to me by my mother and my sister.
-
Nothing its hard work looking for another job :)
-
Not one thing, think about starting your own business from home.
-
Nothing!
-
You have time to get some work done!!!! You have time to work on YOUR OWN projects. Instead of wasting your time working on someone else's project.
-
Getting up when you are ready to, rather than when you are still tired. Having time to do what you actually want to do.
-
Nothing because you got no income coming in and you're always broke.
-
It may start off as fun..but it never stays that way...
-
Nothing. Loss of self esteem can be hard to recover from
-
Raalizing that "Now" is more than just a bridge to tomorrow.
-
Only the first couple of days when you are still revelling in the fact that you aren't at work. After that it gets boring and then stressful.
-
There can be a lot of fun things about being unemployed: You can do all of the things you never had time for. Explore your hobbies and passion. Get involved in volunteering. Think about what you want to do with your life and perhaps go back to school or get training to actually do it. Spend more time with your family. Find cool fun things to do in your area that are free or cheap. In fact, I have take some of my newly found free time as unemployed to create a blog for stuff to do while you are unemployed. www.fun-employment.com

getting to do all the things you wanted to do. you just don't get money for it.
-

Lot of excercise, being boss just for myself, having fun whenever you want. But is better do all this things - when you come home from work...
