Wow it’s so clear that Adam is a great writer as made super evident in how thoughtfully crafted all of his responses were. And he has a cat. Anyone would be crazy not to hire this guy!

"Where I worked felt like it mattered, and not just to me." Feel this sooo deeply.

This story really resonated with me. When I graduated from college it was impossible to get a job because I had no experience. Now, that experience is too "expensive." As a millennial, it feels like the goal post moves every single time I'm right about to kick the ball in.

The moving of the goal post is so difficult. Good side you can adapt and you are not alone.

Hang in there and wish you the best..

As I customize my resume for the thousandth time this sounds sort of appealing:

“Do I even have a resume in a computer-readable format?" Do the kids even do those any more or do they just AirDrop everything they've ever done into a prospective employer's brainstem?”

First of all well done, and I am sure that there are gigs out there.

My first thought are

The free press

The racket

Matt Taibbi

As possible resources to contact about writing.

You can discuss current economic of fashion brands verses the reality of the market place, your own Substack.

Start a Substack. Seriously even if it is free while you establish yourself. We can send you coffee payments.

Article on How to survive layoffs, what you are doing and how you are doing

An article on how to find good media sources to read. Best economic reads, new book reads, best way to understand the current lack of truth in media. Do a special series and make it something that you can touch base with. Artist, writer friends stories on them and then a six month or year revisit.

Right now there are tons of writers out there, help us find them, the good ones that provide balanced opinion, facts, research on whatever topic. We truly are starving for content. The more useful the better.

I also wish you continued health, happiness, and success. I am rooting for you.
