The Foggy Monocle, whose idea I'm blatantly ripping off, has a treasure trove of unemployment drinking stories. I recommend familiarizing yourself with their site with these obvious wastes of inspired talent:
A Gentleman Requires a Bailout
A Gentleman Drinks What He Is Owed In Severance
Two Unemployed Gentlemen Go Rogue
A Gentleman Prepares a Sumptuous Meal
A Gentleman Trades Places
Unemployed? Watching your co-workers get picked off one-by-one? Finding yourself roped into your deadbeat friends' increasingly desperate and manic shenanigans? Pass your story or links along to workingforthegovernment@gmail.com
"I'm so embarrassed to be one of those people who collects unemployment."
"Oh, when people ask what you do, just say that you work for the government. If they ask follow-up questions, tell them you can't do into detail about it. Because you can't."
