are you recession-proofed?

Someone’s told me before how helpful some of my tips are (when I say “someone”, I mean “I told myself”), so I figured I’ll give you some more of my oh-so-enlightening advice. I recently came across a career quiz that’s supposed to help make sure the readers won’t get fired because of the… recession… god, it hurt to say that word. Here are some excerpts to see if we’re on track with not getting laid off (I said “laid”).
I am usually the most positive person in the room. The glass is half-fucking-full.
I have joined a social networking site (Linkedin, Facebook, etc.), and consistently invite people to link with me. Only bands and sixteen-year-old scene boys friend me back, though.
I have volunteered for a project outside my area of responsibility. I volunteer at Freemont Street every week-end.
I have expanded my knowledge base by recently taking a course or seminar that broadens my skills. Jewelry Making 101.
I read at least three new professional journals, magazines or books every quarter to expand my ability to be a resource for new ideas. Cosmo, Rolling Stone, and Sailor Moon novels.
I know where I'd like to be in five years. Yeah, not here.
Then you add up points (I have no idea where the numbers come from), and depending on your score, you’re either keeping your job or you’re fucked (I am helpful). Here’s the breakdown:
0-5: You're fired.
6-10: You're being let go.
11-15: You’re a tool. Nobody likes you.
16-20: Congratulations! You’re a narcissistic, ass-kissing, goody-two-shoes and everybody at work hates you. Actually, everyone in general hates you, even your mom. You’re recession-proofing yourself well. But, still, nobody likes you.
Here’s my advice: don’t get your ass fired.
