    I know what it's like to go into work one day, only to have the rug pulled out from under you: Fired. Out on your tail. Unemployed. I have a number of friends, who are experiencing this very thing.

I count myself as one of those people. Then there's another group of friends who are perpetually unhappy, waiting for something to happen and complaining at every turn because it's not.
