If you lose your job today, will it be disastrous? can you get one soon?

That is hard. But if ever i would lose my job i believe i can find one soon.Though it may not be as high paying at first but with dedication and hardwork it can lead to promotion soon. I hope your friend finds a job soon

I actually moved just a few months ago to a new state. During that time I had to search and find a new job. It was definitely tough! I went a month unemployed and only had my online earnings to live off of. Thank goodness for my husband's income! Eventually though I did find a job. If I were to lose this one now it would probably take some time but I'm certain I could find a new job soon.

I am single and don't have any kids nor am I obliged to contribute at home. But definitely should I lose my job today it would be disastrous. I know it might sound oh so selfish, but you see, I contribute a lot in my family, I'm the one my dad borrows from when he's short of cash and such. I contribute wholeheartedly to the family affairs and meals, and am saving up for my future family and for my little brother's college education. I have had discussions with my friend about the matter on how tough it is today to lose a job. We, as single people, can't rely everything on dear old mom and dad, most especially that we have already finished school and are working. This is why we really question those people who have no stable jobs but have a lot of responsibilities like school, food and rent. I pity your friend, but like everyone else, he has to tough it out. Financial problems really bug us all down and sooner or later we would be ready to just give up. I'd hope his family could motivate him a lot and you as his friend could help by spreading his need for a job around. I'm sure with all his credentials of working in a high paying job would help him well enough, if he's competent to find something else. There are a lot of odd jobs around and I'd hope he would try those while looking for something more fitting in the future. It's tough really, and I'd sure want to help out if only I earn enough to be able to shell out a few. But in this lifetime, I don't think there's someone who really has the extra dough to shell out, isn't this the primary reason why we sweat it out doing mylot in the first place? Yes, it doesn't put food on the table on a daily basis, but it's a good way to productively earn something while just staying at home and doing nothing really important. I'd sure pray for your friend and his family. But just tell him to 'hang in there' things will get better soon.
