Hiding a layoff from the family, bad idea?

    My spouse does not know yet that I was let go as a machine operator. It has been a long 4 weeks. Bills are coming up and I cannot keep this quiet. How did you handle it?

    Shame is common after a layoff even when it is not your fault. Saying it out loud to one person first helped me.
