Twist on Unemployment
My husband has had his bouts of unemployment and this would have been a great book for him to have. At first, he is cheery and very excited about new opportunities, but it sizzles out quickly, and he gets depressed. This book actually brings a hopeful side to unemployment. And you may not be unemployed quite yet but you may be facing unemployment and this book can be really good for people to prevent themselves from falling into a deep dark hole and keeping their hopes alive when they aren't going to the job of their dreams each day. Great resource for people.

A brilliant book
This is a brilliant book written with such sincerity. It is a book all who have recently been unemployed should get. It walks you through all the steps of going through this tough time of being unemployed and making something positive out of a negative situation. This book is very well written, and I like the positive spin put on unemployment, basically being the boss of yourself and even thanking your previous employer for doing you a favour by letting you go and start to think about making something out of your loss and updating yourself. It looks at budgeting, which many overlook until we are unemployed or financially hard up and need to make necessary cuts. I like the way she matter-of-factly tackles this book. Congratulations to the author for turning a negative situation into a helpful book and leaving a great legacy rather than throwing a pity party and becoming a couch burrito!
