“In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity.”
– Albert Einstein
Whether or not you have heard these wise words from Albert Einstein, the message rings true today, especially in these uncertain times. Lives have turned upside down, people with steady jobs are being laid off, parents are becoming teachers, homes are becoming offices, and the word “normal” has taken on a new meaning.
The COVID-19 pandemic and economic crisis have affected nearly everyone in this country, especially in the workforce. In North Carolina alone, more than one million individuals have filed for unemployment, according to the North Carolina Division of Employment Security. This goes far beyond anything the state has ever seen, including The Great Recession over a decade ago.
In the entire country, tens of millions of Americans have found themselves suddenly out of work. Individuals are waiting almost a month or more to even receive their first unemployment check, if they qualify at all. For a lot of families, that month without a paycheck is critical.
