Welcome to The Empty Cube

The Empty Cube is an online community/social network for the jobless. Our mission is to provide a forum for the unemployed to advise, encourage, and support one another. At minimum, we hope the camaraderie and resources available through this site help reduce the feelings of loneliness and isolation that often accompanies unemployment. At The Empty Cube, you are not alone!

While our community is primarily targeted towards those who don’t hold jobs, we welcome participation from any individual who believes that he/she can make a positive contribution to The Empty Cube. We aspire to attract a diverse membership, so please tell your family members, friends, or professional colleagues about The Empty Cube.

Thanks for visiting our community.
