[webproducers] West Coast - New York

SAN FRANCISCO -- It is volunteer night at the San Francisco Food Bank, and the 
dot-bombed have gathered to be reminded that somewhere, some people
are even more miserable than they are. Wendy Wedlake, in capri pants, packs 
frozen snow peas into plastic baggies. She has been out of work for
four months. Her compatriots eavesdrop sadly as she shares her story:

"Laid off from an Internet market research company, third round, I was in 
sales, I knew it was coming. When they told me, at first I didn't even
cry. It wasn't until I got out of the building and walked into the Muni station 
that I lost it."

The faster her unhappiness spills out, the faster she bags. "Now I'm 30 years 
old, I have no job, I haven't had a date in months; I mean, who'd
want to date me? I'm living at my aunt and uncle's house, sleeping in my 
cousin's old bedroom under a Laura Ashley bedspread. I mean, my relatives
have been great, but--look, I had my own apartment. I'll probably have to sell 
my Passat next."
