Our old boss at @TheMessenger called our GoFundMe for employees laid off w/o severance or healthcare "wonderful." He ignores the fact that the situation has put dozens of people in dire situations.

On a good day, I remember how much I love journalism. Talking to someone, learning about their life or their expertise, then putting pen to paper — that will never, ever get old.

On a bad day, I feel frustrated that unless you can land a highly-coveted job at a non-profit or co-op, you are often left taking the scraps from some cartoon rich guy until his business inevitably fails and you have to move on to the next doomed company.
