Unemployment question

Forrest sends this picture and letter from San Francisco. He writes:

At the gym, people are talking about having to get to spin class at least 15 min. before it starts to get a bike when the classes used to be half full. These are midday classes, during the week. People continue to chatter about layoffs, but most of us do freelance work. We still have jobs but no work to speak of. We all try to keep busy at the gym. It's the best we've looked in years.
