Whether people do good deeds because of their selfless nature or

older. But why is this? Is it a realization of few years
remaining to do good or something else?

Most people have lost a job at some point in their life. Whether
they were fired, laid off, or made the choice to quit, it's
still a difficult life event to process.
How did you get back to life after you lost your job? What kind
of environment/people did you surround yourself?
How long did you give yourself to mope around before you got
back out there to find a new job? How did you make peace with
the fact that a chapter of your life was over?
What motivated you to get back on your feet?
Any words of advice for people who have lost their jobs
recently?
Requirements:
I would like sources who have experienced losing their jobs for
this query. If you were fired, laid off, or had to leave a job
unexpectedly, you would be perfect for this.
I think also people who have been fired/laid off due to Covid19
would also be timely for this piece.

Hi, I am working on a story about the next coronavirus relief
package. Republicans want to offer liability protection for
restaurants, factories, hotels, hospitals, universities, nursing
homes, to make sure employers can't get sued every time a worker
gets sick. This could save more than $100 billion in litigation
costs to employers and ultimately workers, according to an
economist. What is your view on the liability protection? As a
business owner are you concerned about coronavirus-related
lawsuits? Do you believe this protection should be included in
the next bill? Do you believe this is an important factor in
opening the business?
