What’s Your Story?



Are You Unemployed or Worried About Your Job?

If you are, we’d like to hear from you. We’re launching this blog as a forum where people can share their stories about personal life experiences. We chose unemployment as a conversation-starter because it’s a hot topic. Vent here with people who are in a similar situation to you or who have been down the unemployment road before. Just knowing you’re not alone may help you—and your fellow bloggers—to feel better.

Write to blog@universalstranger.com. Registration is quick and easy and you’re welcome to remain anonymous. Read our privacy statement here. Please note we reserve the right to edit content—ie, screen out pointless profanities and insults (especially insults to other bloggers). We assume good faith and exercise respect.

You can also comment on Rody’s personal, real-life unemployment story. Rody is Universal Stranger’s songwriter-in-residence. Listen to DSS Blues—his song about unemployment, sung brilliantly by Steve Banks—here.

The video clearly displays the lyrics (in fact, the video displays nothing else, much to Rody’s disgust; he thinks we’re cheap). Like all sensitive artists, Rody craves attention so listen to the song, read the lyrics and tell us how the story reflected in the song relates to your own life. Rody will love you for it.

We look forward to hearing from you.
