Scenario:
Until a year ago, Bryce worked on a truck assembly line for a U.S. automaker. His wife,
Megan, has tried to be supportive, but with two kids to raise, it has been a struggle.
Bryce’s friend and former co-worker, Todd, lives elsewhere now, but he is back in town
for a few days and has called Bryce to find out how he is doing.
Todd: Hey, buddy! Haven’t heard from you in ages. Where’ve you been hiding?
Bryce: Where else? I don’t get out much these days.
Todd: I would’ve thought you’d be hitting the pavement looking for work.
Bryce: Yeah, well, six months ago, you’d have been right.
Todd: You stopped looking that long ago?
Bryce: After a year of applying, interviewing, jumping through all the hoops, I finally
realized nothing I did mattered. I just couldn’t take another rejection. The bottom line is,
no one wants me.
Todd: Geez, that doesn’t sound good. How are you feeling now?
Bryce: I guess I’m not feeling much of anything.
Todd: How are Megan and the kids?
Bryce: I don’t know. I think they might leave me. We’ve run through our savings. We’re
behind on the mortgage. I’m going to lose everything. I feel bad, but I can’t do anything
about it.
Todd: I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to… If you don’t want to talk about it …
Bryce: No. It’s okay. I’ve just felt too hopeless to talk to anyone.
Todd: Well, to be honest, I was in a similar place 6 months ago; definitely not an easy
place to be.
Bryce: Really? What did you do? I mean, I know you moved away.
Todd: Tell you what, if you want to hear my sob story, I’m free tomorrow. Let’s get together
and chew the fat, like old times.
