Is One Unemployed or a Free Lancer?

I am never sure if Susannah Breslin is a free lancer or just unemployed with some pickup jobs and sometimes neither does she.

Here is her current take on her status.

It is tough out there.  I got an EMail this AM from my friend "Brunsl", who was let go by Raytheon and has ended up with for a small outfit at Hanscom AFB, starting soon.  A job with travel to the 49th and 50th States!  He didn't mention salary, but I suspect he landed on his feet.  Not all have been that lucky.

The real issue, down under the layers of angst and concern and ideology is the question of if the US (or Global) economy is undergoing a fundamental shift.  Once we identify if there is a shift, and if there is, what is it, there is the follow-on question of how society reorganizes to take advantage of that shift while ensuring that everyone stays part of society and doesn't fall by the wayside.
