Friends of mine who were laid off this year can't find jobs. One moved back in with his parents and gave up on the job search. One started a full-time dog-walking business. One works at a grocery. It's really bad out there.

Didn't they have a lot of savings? If I had 50k saved I would never take a grocery job.
Why would they have a lot of savings?
as an engineer you make good money
