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?"
