Unemployed Stories

"Bridget Jones with a lot more wine! This story is hilarious, feel-good and relatable in all the best ways!" - Grace K @ HQ. She's just quit her high-flying job, and her marriage is coasting on fumes. Can Alice find a sense of purpose in the wreckage? ***** Alice's life isn't going to plan. She's tied to her phone, pointlessly managing PR for a sinking corporate megalith. She's become a bit player in her kids' lives, and her marriage is coasting on fumes. Forcing herself into action with a rash resignation, Alice sets out to make a positive impact on the world around her. But how? Meditation leads to napping, and her attempts to get closer to her teenage daughter result in the discovery of a secret that leaves her at a loss. As the months tick by and a sense of purpose continues to elude her, Alice finds herself forming bonds with the most unlikely characters: the young woman who panhandles outside her old office; the homeless boy who sits cross-legged outside the liquor store with his ginger cat; her own dog walker who, it turns out, knows a thing or two about developing a good crema. Testing the limits of marriage, motherhood and the Toronto subway system -- can Alice find her way into a purpose-driven life? Or will it all be one giant hangover? [*Wattpad Editor's Pick 2018*] [[word count: 70,000-80,000 words]] Readers say: "This had me laughing so loud that my sister came to check up on me to see if I'm OK!!!" "...the new Bridget Jones, a working woman's take on the digital age." About the Author: Working mother and red wine enthusiast, Renee lives in Toronto with her flawed but wonderful family (seriously, who left socks on the kitchen counter?) in a flawed but wonderful house (what *is* that smell in the basement?) where she writes flawed but wonderful stories about what it is to be a woman today.

At twenty-seven, Hellen is living in Munich, unemployed, financially dependent on her mother, and trying to understand what kind of future is still possible for her. But her story did not begin with becoming a NEET. She was born in Georgia, survived the 2008 war in Gori, moved to Germany as a child, learned a new language, grew up as a foreigner, and later faced paranoid schizophrenia, depression, psychiatric treatment, and years of trying to rebuild her life. Now she spends her days making abstract art, thinking about artificial intelligence, worrying about jobs that may not exist in ten years, and wondering whether adulthood is still waiting for her somewhere. She is fascinated by AI and afraid of it. She uses it to create, even as she watches AI-assisted art outperform the work she makes by hand. She dreams about teaching, writing, independence, and a future with more possibilities than her present seems to offer. Female NEET in the Age of AI is a raw, personal memoir about war, mental illness, poverty, art, technology, and the strange experience of trying to build a life while the world itself is changing at an overwhelming speed. This is not a story written after everything worked out. It is a story written from the middle of the uncertainty. From someone who survived her past and is still trying to figure out her future.

Aakash and Aarathi, two depressed cousins who were on the verge of killing themselves off due to them failing in their neet exam, get the news of their older cousin's disappearance. Since the police won't investigate Vishwa's unlikely disappearance, they take it upon themselves to find him and bring him back home. But this is not a two people job, they need more assistance, kind of an elderly assistance. That's when Aakash's neighbour Meera, who is the same age of Vishwa comes to the rescue. They together try to find Vishwa. But in finding him, they lose a lot more. Aakash and Aarathi find disturbing information about Meera. Did she only come to help or sabotage their entire mission?

𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐈 𝐁𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐘𝐨𝐮. A Soul Swap Story. 𝐕𝐚𝐧𝐲𝐚 𝐏𝐫𝐚𝐣𝐚𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐢 - a celebrated fashion designer living her dream life in Los Angeles, never imagined an accidental underwater kiss would swap her soul with 𝐀𝐝𝐚𝐫𝐬𝐡 𝐏𝐮𝐫𝐨𝐡𝐢𝐭 - a certified broke guy from Bihar. Now, they're forced to survive each other's impossible worlds while searching for a way back. "ᴡʜᴇɴ ꜰᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʟɪᴘꜱ ᴛʜᴇ ꜱᴄʀɪᴘᴛ, ᴡʜᴏ ᴡɪʟʟ ʏᴏᴜ ʙᴇᴄᴏᴍᴇ?"

What if the hardest journey isn't finding a job... but finding yourself? After graduation, Aarohi believes a job will solve everything. But rejection, comparison, and society's expectations slowly make her question her identity. As she walks through darkness, she discovers that the light she had been searching for was never success-it was within her all along. Dreams on Hold is an emotional journey about identity, hope, faith, and self-discovery. Because DREAMS PAUSED FOR A WHILE, NOT DESTROYED.

Olivia Collins has just found herself in a very sticky situation. It appears that her blunt personality and inability to refrain from telling the truth has just gotten her fired. Now, she is on the hunt for anyone willing to hiring her, in hopes that she won't have to give up on the Los Angeles lifestyle she has grown to love. Add to that the fact that all of the men from her past seem to keep reappearing in her life, and you have one tantalizing recipe for disaster.

Three siblings. Three kingdoms. Three paths that were never meant to cross-but fate has other plans. Kael Blackmoor is a master thief who survives by blending into shadows and stealing from the powerful. During a royal banquet meant to celebrate the Crown Prince's marriage to seven future husbands, Kael plans the perfect heist-until he's noticed by Prince Alaric, a man who sees too much and asks too little. What begins as a chance conversation turns into something dangerous: being known. As Kael walks the thin line between freedom and attachment, he must decide whether some things are worth stealing-or worth staying for. Dylan Blackmoor, the charming, chaotic middle sibling, has no titles, no secrets, and no patience for his family's constant nagging. Tired of being "the normal one," he impulsively takes a job as a tutor and nanny for the children of eight kings in a neighboring kingdom. What Dylan expects to be easy quickly becomes something far more complicated, pulling him into royal politics, unexpected bonds, and a role that may finally give him purpose. Dream Blackmoor, the youngest and most dangerous of them all, has traded her freedom for loyalty to eight Empresses she's never met. Living quietly within the palace as a spy and assassin, Dream waits for a real mission in a kingdom ruled by dragons, witches, and sirens. When a casual walk leads her straight into the presence of two Empresses themselves, her life shifts-and the secret blade of the court is finally seen. Across kingdoms filled with myth, monsters, and magic, the Blackmoor siblings walk separate paths-each entangled with royalty, each hiding truths that could change empires. This is a story of stolen moments, chosen family, forbidden connections, and the quiet power of being seen.

The gap between employers and employees has never been wider. Record turnover, generational stress, and trillion-dollar costs. How do we bring both sides back to the center?

These poems are created about life and experiences from being, scared of change, havingidentity crisis, become homeless, lose a job, or are determined, and see the best in life there should be at least one poem that everyone can relate to in my collection. Please give me feedback so that I can improve my writing. For now I do this as a creative outlet in an otherwise uncreative life.
