If the internet suddenly shutdown globally for a few days too weeks or months or years do you think you could survive without the internet?

In today's world, almost none of us in the "first world" would survive without Internet for weeks or months. Not simply because people would go crazy without social media, but because so much of our lives are connected to Internet use: job communication, online banking, staying connected with friends and family on WhatsApp, Messenger, etc.

Yes I could, however there is a lot of things that use the internet. banking would collapse, airlines, global logistics, etc would also collapse.

Days or a few weeks wouldn't be that much of an issue, however months? My job depends on it.
I would have to find another job.
