For certain reasons, I want to call these lessons, courses. Tutor? Covid-19. And they are free courses. But not everyone might attend the classes.
I have given more thoughts to work recently than other times.
I’ve also worked more – outside the office than any other time.
I read a story of how an employee was told that at 5pm of the day she was called that she will be off employment.
The person in question got the call from the director and these are few lines from the conversation:
“She said we are actually – have to d away with your position altogether because, you know, we do – we want to make sure that if something like this ever happens again that we will be prepared and being able to just work with the people that we have to…”
The truth is that even when it happens again, there will still be lay offs.
In the same line, another employee, who was laid off, was asked the question, “… how are you getting by right now?”
Her response?
“You know, fortunately – and I got to say I’m thankful that I’ve – you know, I was able to have a little bit of savings – not a ton. But that’s mostly what I’ve been living off of here in I guess what’s been a couple of months.”
Can you see that?
Government too can’t help you fully. They are like you and I in so many ways. We know of corruption and all of that but they are like us in many ways.
What’s the the writing on the wall?
Covid-19 says, take responsibility for your life.
Don’t rely on jobs any more even after this lockdown. Get your feet up and your brains open.
Do something apart from having a job.
Period!
