I imagine it’s easier to go from middle/upper class to homeless and then bounce back, than it is to bounce back to a place you’ve never been. For my own homeless experiences (~5 years), I was able to jump back because of work history a

I liked the specificity in your original post. For myself, the example in the blog post brings up a lot of feelings from previous complex relationships with managers and their managers. I have been in contexts where asking for a heads up on
