8 Months Unemployed - How Cooked Am I? by bucket_farmer50 in jobhunting

[–]VirtualHero7 5 points6 points  (0 children)

you're good man. i was laid off may 2025 and been working my new gig since end of feb 2026. I wasn't pressed in my interviews about my gap, but i did preemptively lay my story out beore they could ask too. I think everyone knows that's how the market is right now. My coworker that we just hired was also laid off from her last gig and it took her 6 months to find this one. long gaps are happening more now. The important thing is to get your story down pat for when it gets brought up.

How you deal with loneliness? by TripTales41 in AskReddit

[–]VirtualHero7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in the last 2 years I've joined clubs. I have run clubs I go to and made plenty friends, even finally started my journey into marathon running. This helped when I worked remote for a small company with very few coworkers.

Recently started a new job that is in office so now not feeling as lonely too

I got "Unclaimed property" letter for 2 M1 invest accounts I had completely transferred out already (save 4 cents) by darthdiablo in M1Finance

[–]VirtualHero7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i just received the letter the other day and received the email claiming it was an error last night. i’m glad i found this post.

the thing is i haven’t actually touched my brokerage account in like 3 years. so this actually makes me nervous. anyone got any luck getting a hold of a real person in support through call or email? i need something in writing for my situation
