Unemployment is so underrated
Here's another good thing I've found about being unemployed: You can go to a baseball game with your friends on a Thursday night and not have to worry about getting up early the next morning.
Also, on Friday, when you're deathly ill from too many 15-cent hot wings and dollar beers at said baseball game, you can spend the afternoon lying in the park, reading magazines and taking advantage of the gorgeous, fall-like weather while the rest of your friends are cooped up in offices like a bunch of suckers.
Of course, there is a downside to hanging out in the park on a weekday afternoon. Namely, that some strange guy might come up to you and tell you he's thinking of going to school to study some sort of physical therapy and wants to know if he can give you a foot massage. Needless to say, I politely declined this offer. The funniest thing was, he prefaced it with, "I don't mean for this to sound odd, but..." Here's a little hint, strange guy in park: Any time you walk up to a woman you don't know and ask if you can rub her feet, it's going to sound odd, preface or no. So don't even bother trying to qualify it.
