Recession Stories

A tale of U2, regret and lost opportunity.

A recession shows an economic decline and lasts from months to years. There is less trade and manufacturing of goods, and people spend less money. The most important thing is to know when recessions happen and things making them worse. However, there are reasons during a recession to start a business.

At a strange time, in a exceptional year, it can be hard to make sense of the world around us. I try to express a point of view through poetry. The intention is to build a collection of poetry into an anthology that chronicles some of the notable moments of recent times. They say hindsight is 2020... it transpires that 2020 is something else. At least the mind can escape, even if the body can't. Enjoy (tell me if you don't)!

This is about the economic crash of 2020 and a coronavirus update. It goes into a lot of detail.

Two men, two different levels in society. World War 2 is over. ****DISCLAIMER: This story is not meant to be taken seriously, nor as a total joke. It is farcical, therefore the absurdity of the story with the serious delivery. The concept is quite sick and twisted, but it is a narrative based upon the writing style for a story I am reading for language arts. It is a historical fiction novel, however based on the seriousness of the topic, I find it insanely absurd how more than have of the story revolves around sexual acts--Yet it is about murder and dictatorship, as well as conspiracy, so this was a reaction idea I had. PLEASE DO NOT BE OFFENDED BY ANY MATERIAL

story of a cab driver who lost his job in recession period and the challenges he faced.

This story follows the day in the life of three teenagers from a small rural Irish town that was bypassed by the motorway system and bypassed by the Celtic tiger. With no hope of them going to college and there being no jobs in the town they were forced to turn to a life of crime to get by and support their families.

On the crime ridden streets of Old London Town the law has been subcontracted and justice awarded to the highest bidder. But from the dark depths of despair and chaos, a hero is born. A murder in the town of Ostere isn't headline news A vagrant running from conscription is common place But this vagrant knew the deceased and was witnessed fighting with the deceased So now the police want a word As do the killers Ben Jackman, vagrant by day, hunter of road kill by night, isn't the man to take the fall Proving his innocence is obvious Finding the killer is crucial But Ben needs a gun, a big gun with lots of bullets, because the seedy streets of Ostere have a new breed of criminal and they aren't looking to take prisoners

A poem about life's struggles. Being so skint but knowing as long as you have the important things in life like love and family you will always be the richest person of all.

Melbourne 2009 - remembered for assault and almost genocide of Indians... I was there. I remember that period more for personal unhappiness and a big tragedy!!!! Personally unhappy - hardly 2 months after marriage I was forced to travel... Recession danger on job - just for 2 months - it became 7 months!!!! Tragedy - my good friend died - a freak accident - 1 in a million.... after 2 weeks in coma- we witnessed the heart breaking sight of his young wife in denial her talk to her kids - 2 girls children telling "Papa is fine will be back in few weeks".... The petty mind of powers that be in the IT world. The shallowness of friendship of the demised man's big managers My feelings of the shallowness of all things we hold important in life My depression at his death and the shallowness around it from his family and managers. 6 MONTHS OF HELL ON EARTH IN MELBOURNE...

A vision of what is "normality"

All ends mark a beginning. When Nathaniel Remington is forced to begin riding the bus home during the 2009 recession in the deeply southern city of Mobile, Alabama, what will he make of the blonde-haired boy sitting across from him?
