Sean Tetpon, 55, a seasoned communications manager who has held six-figure positions for years, is facing significant financial hardship despite applying for over 1,000 jobs. Now, he and his wife have cut every possible expense and are considering bankruptcy.
Tetpon was financially stable for most of his adult life, working at various large companies, though he was laid off in 2019. In between job applications, he drove for Lyft and landed a job in 2021. However, he was laid off last September and hasn't landed another job since.
