Eleven chapters cover the following topics: fault and unemployment; how to spend one's free time; emotional release and remaining positive; listening patiently to other people's advice; deciding what one wants to do--a job, a career, or a life's work; making a personal wish list about oneself for employment hunting; trying different jobs, especially volunteer opportunities; organizing a grid that tracks activities on a weekly basis; saving as much money as possible; dealing with interviewing disasters; and being kind to oneself and using the time to learn about oneself.
