Industry layoffs, what are people doing? after 14 years as a hotel front-desk agent

Many of the people I know in my field were laid off this year, including me as a hotel front-desk agent. There are 14 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. The postings I see are fewer and ask for more. Which areas are hiring?

Talk to people in the field you are considering. Two coffee chats changed my mind about one option.
