Yup. When my previous firm folded I ended up in that situation.
So, after the happy day telling all my staff they didn't have a job and probably wouldn't get paid, I signed on. Thankfully I managed to find a couple of days a week contracting installing Mainframe coms and writing system drivers so I "declared income".

Grief I enjoyed telling them I didn't need their handout this (most) fortnight. I knew I was making more a day than the guy behind the desk made in a week. You can take the rudeness with a big friendly smile when you know it hurts him more than it hurts you.

Sorry. My nasty side leaks out occasionally.
