Maybe it is just me, but after a month or so with no prospects on the horizon, I am biting my pride and flipping burgers if I need to. (preferably a real late shift in a covert town).

Like I said, it depends on the situation. Taking part-time work could possibly throw off a career path you've worked hard to achieve and can continue once things pick up. This of course assumes you have the means to live in the mean time.

Certainly though, if you've been out of work that long and need the money you should look to do anything to be productive rather than just complain.
