Seriously, that’s the theme of this blog post at Fox News,
A growing group of jobless across the nation are joining a self-proclaimed movement: ‘funemployment.’ It’s a group of jovial unemployed who say they’re finally doing what they’ve always wanted to do – whether it is blogging or starting a nonprofit.
Christy Annis knows this all too well. After graduating from Tulane law school and practicing for more than a decade, she got laid off last year. But now, she said losing her jobs was one of the best things that happened to her.
“I love waking up everyday and it’s just – what am I going to create today?,” Annis said. “I have so many opportunities. The internet and blogs and Twitter and Facebook; it’s very powerful and it is so easy for people to get information and to find people doing things. You can do anything you want right now.”
So, should you be going, “Oh no, I just lost my job” or “Oh boy, I just lost my job! Wheeeeee!”
Honest answer: It depends.
