I got a news report today morning that my company will be laying off employees starting this week. There is a Great Recession coming up in the US once again.
And many companies are laying off their employees. My sister’s company laid off two employees yesterday without any prior notice.
I am afraid of losing the job because currently my husband is jobless already and it’s on me at the moment. I don’t get lot of salary I can o my pay our rent and buy some vegetables and pay bills and that’s the end of my salary.
I am hoping I don’t get pushed out. Because otherwise it will be getting difficult.

Anna, it's not just one or two countries, either. It's all over the world. We just THINK it's been bad already. I still remember the stories my grandparent's told me...we all need to live close, not waste anything, and try (I say try, because this is the hardest one) to not spend every dime if we can avoid it. Problem with that is so many don't have enough right now to spend even on basic needs. A friend of mine had to take her son and his family in, as his job was eliminated recently. They can't make it on one paycheck. Times are hard and I fear they could get worse.

It is like a cyclic event that over a century ago your country got into it too. I hope that it won't get worse like it was before. I hope that your country has learned a lot from what they experience before so they can avoid getting into it again.

I hope you will be able to keep your job. It is so sad when they start to lay people off and they do not have another job lined up or someone at home is out of work too. I hope they did not say anything to you or will they? Will they just lay people off? I know during the corona so many lost their jobs. Can you find things to do online to make sure you have an income coming in so can pay the rent and get things and pay bills?

Work hard, show yr boss that you are worth it. Boss prefer employees who can do 2 person job. All bosses are the aame. If you slack in your job, you will be one of them being kick off.
