    I guess I have to start up my job search spreadsheet. and maybe use some of my dead time to learn new job skills.

    My condolences.

    Job searching is a challenge, even in the best of times.

    Good luck.

    Yes, platforms of all kinds these days are rather "sanitised". (The legal parts of everything could potentially get one into trouble, though.)

    Hoping things will work out for you!

    I got my 10th chance with the county government. Maybe because IM not tethered to the temp agency right now, I should be able to get placed next week.

    Sorry to hear this. What field are you in?

    Luckily, e-learning is flourishing, and there's a lot you could do from
    home. I'm saddened that Linkedin is now requiring a Linkedin account for
    their paid Linkedin Learning site.

    They'd re-branded Lynda.com, and several libraries had arrangements were you could access the Linkedin Learning content through the library system and Lynda.com for free. That's since changed.

    If you're in tech, there are a ton of Youtube channels dedicated to setting
    up homelabs and learning hireable skills on inexpensive home equipment.

    I'm following one of them with a $5 goodwill router, a $50 laptop with a broken screen, a spare SATA drive from an old system and a ton of open-
    source software.

    You could do well with a Raspberry Pi as a low-end home lab, too.



    ... A closed system lacks the ability to renew itself.

    enjoyment too. Sending some good vibes your way :)
