A change of employment status from a full-time, salaried position to an Adaptive Non-Salaried Position (Adaptive-NS) without the security, benefits and perks usually associated with full time work.
"At least with a layoff, I'd know I was out of work, but apparently this Adaptive Non-Salaried Position (Adaptive-NS) reclassification is supposed to make me think I'm making a sideways move - just without health care, retirement benefits or any notion of a future. Do I look that stupid?"

Rarely the main breadwinner in a marriage, the wife’s contribution to the household income to get a larger mortgage, fancier car, etc. Typically ranging from $30k to $45k, the wife salary also allows for smaller alimony or child support payments when the inevitable divorce happens.
When Tom met with the bank, he was able to explain why - through the wife salary - he qualified for a larger mortgage. Exact same argument when he met with the divorce attorney 2 years later, but the reverse argument in why he didn’t need to pay alimony.
