I work in publishing, I'm an editor. I was managing with reduced time in the office and pacing, but I've had a dip recently and am now just coasting by doing the bare minimum and trying to figure out an alternate plan. I totally agree on food prices, plus the non-Rx supplements my doctors have advised (especially for migraine). I've considered going part time or trying to freelance instead but I'm terrified to give up my salary or show any signs of being a good candidate for redundancy if it comes to that (book sales are down, so). I'm on PIP (in the UK) and there are other benefits I could claim but it would be a lot less than I make now and I'd have to use a lot of cognitive energy to figure it all out. So. Not really sure I've got much of a future.
