I would rather work at wal-mart then be laid off for three years...
If this is directed at me, I have had plenty of side jobs to keep me going over the last couple years, I work them at my pace, and Im pretty sure I do better than Walmart wages.
Not that there's anything wrong with that.
On another note. I actually loved my job @ Ford, and Im all set to wait it out as long as it takes, even if I have to do a job I dont want to for a couple years.
