  1. It isn't just women getting laid off, I lost my job in the IT industry about 2 year ago. For me, it didn't affect me as much, because I lived frugally for many years. Saved most of my money, invested it, paid off all my debts. I have enough to not work for a couple of decades. I was looking for another job that was similar to what I lost, but I tried for 8 months and nothing came of it. I just found 3 low paying jobs. These days, I work about 25 hours a week processing medical records, work 16 hours/week washing dishes, and 16 hours/week at a warehouse. I still need to make money to support my elderly parents, and I don't want to use my savings to do that. The demand for computer programmers is not very high right now. If you lost your job in this field, and trying to find another kind of job. You can keep looking for the job you lost, but don't spend 8 hours a day doing that.

  2.  @earthbind83  I tried to apply for remote jobs, but the salary that I want isn't competitive. I am competing against people from India that will work for much less. To do that kind of work for $15 to $20 per hour isn't worth it, because I am making that right now with those low paying jobs I have now. Plus, it isn't stressful or anything.
