Both Rachel and Scott reside in San Francisco and welcome any dried beans, peanut butter or cake mixes people choose to send them.
Tales From the Recently Laid Off has been featured in:The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times and spoken with KQED,American Public Media's Marketplace and Katie Couric.Categories
