Thanks for the 'other side of the story', Dien. You're definitely right on that. Certainly been true for me.
Being multi-talented can be a blessing...especially when times are hard and you have to be resourceful. Those out of work should consider doing freelance work in something they are knowledgeable about and have some skills in that might pay the freight temporarily. It doesn't have to be in your regular line of work...it can even be a hobby or interest of yours. If it's feasible and there is some demand for it ordinarily, you can probably find some freelance work.
A lot of businesses that normally would have positions filled by full-timers, are desperate for part-time, temporary, or freelance help to keep things rolling during bad times.
