You can always go back to Taiwan and teach English. I heard there's big money in private sectors.

heh, last time I got laid off, my avg posts/day on AT went from like 20 to 0.01

Then of course, a few months later when I got another job with internet access, it shot back up.

With 8 or 9 months of expenses in the bank, you ought to land on your feet from this one. Good luck.

I live with 4 friends, 2 in one room and 2 in the other and 1 gets his own and we split the rent. And the one who has his own room, his parents own the place so we pay cheaper.
