I live in fear of a layoff or a huge medical crisis (as I'm sitting here waiting for blood work to come back to find out why I'm so freaking tired and have had a fever on and off for 3 weeks...). It is frightening to think about how one major crisis could impact so many of us in such a huge way. I really worry for so many of us that are in this position. I am also greatful daily for my job that pays well and has decent benefits.
