97 Good Things about Unemployment

97. When you cough, you don’t have to cover your mouth. (Because manners and germs don't count when you are alone.)

96. When you can't will your feet to walk, you crawl to your computer. Still sick and miserable. There will be better days.

95. You search for truth. What is our purpose on this earth? What is the meaning of life? Is it like Lou Reed sings, “some kind of nature, some kind of soul.” Or is Quest your savior? For me, it is unemployment insurance. Thanks be to the New York State Department of Labor.

94. When you are sick, you don't miss work.

93. You don't have to lie to your boss when you are looking for a job.
