You can tell us about the unexpected downsides too if you want.

For one period of unemployment I spent my time in the wonderful hobby of patchwork.I sewed little squares together day after day after day. I made patchwork cushions, patchwork bags, patchwork throws and my home looked like some 70's throwback to craft design. I would spend hours cutting little geometric shapes up and laying them out in wonderful designs on the floor. I even re-created a famous abstract painting in patchwork. I trawled through charity shops for interesting material and looked through bookshops for old patchwork magazines.
I was a women obsessed.
Anyway, eventually I found employment and the patchwork hobby slowly died a death. I had learnt my lesson though and vowed never to let this obsession take a hold of me should I be unemployed once again.
The next time I was jobless I just took loads of drugs instead.
