Guess you hate your job. And this is not what this dude needs right now.
I can write good.HRI is Hospitality/Restaurant right?
If you don't find a job within a few months, I might be able to give you some freelance stuff if you don't mind writing. To help pay some bills. I mainly use writers in the Philippines but their costs are rising almost to the point of American Writers.
My first job loss was a crusher. I had a summer interim job at 17 and I was helping replace ties on the CNW. I was super tan, I had great muscles, and I liked being outdoors. Unfortunately a merger of railroads eliminated the work suddenly when the railroad was bought. Boom. Job gone. I was enjoying that job and I ended up cleaning dust off lamps in the JD Waterloo foundry and trimming xmas trees for the rest of the summer. Darn mergers.
If loosing a job falls under one of the worst days of your life you should consider yourself lucky and that qualification stays. It's just a job man, and if you really need money there is always work out there for people who are willing to work.
People loose their kids, spouses, their cognitive ability, motor functions, etc. This is easier said than done but don't get in a self pity or poor me attitude. A person should never have their happiness based of what their JOB is.
I don't hate my job, I like it a lot. But I would rather spend time with my family, friends, traveling, etc than at a job. When you look back at your life when you are near the end are you going to think... man I wish I would have spent more time at work or more time with friends and family?

Don't be afraid to go to a temp agency and be a temp until you find a permanent position. Many companies will use you as a temp for 90 days and "test" you out in a role to see if you are the right fit. It may not be the perfect job, but as a temp you may get into a company you never thought about and end up with a new position, and it will give you a source of income.
As for unemployment, you need to have your ducks in a row when you apply, and be prepared to follow the guidelines. You will have to go through a phone hearing to try to prove your case against your former employer. There a lots of things to consider, but you can win your case if you have everything in order, and have a former employer who doesn't. When I was let go from a job several years ago, I fought and won because my former employer had no leg to stand on, and even better, I was never on the phone for the call.
I graduated from ISU with BS in HRI. Was in that field for 10 years, since then have managed a few different businesses. The last one I was with (7 1/2 years) was a garage door company in which I was responsible for everything except for doing the actual installs or services work. Sales exceeded 1M every year, which was a result of what I did, I was the salesman also. Thanks everyone for your support, it definitely helps!
