I used to hear people say that people are most afraid of middle-aged unemployment, at that time I didn't think so, unemployed and then look for a job, big deal, but really have not experienced, no right to speak, this time is the closest contact with middle-aged unemployment, the impact on individuals, on the family is too great, too terrifying.
A brother-in-law in our family, who did international trade before the epidemic, has first-class English and an annual salary of hundreds of thousands, which is the envy of all of us. Social elite. Have a good family background, a handsome and big image, and a lot of income. Our family says that my sister married a good family.
It is a pity that as soon as the epidemic came, various lockdowns and controls, and the brother-in-law's layoff.
After being laid off, he began to speculate in stocks, and everyone knows that the result was just one, a loss of hundreds of thousands. Then there is no income, although there is a family, but the living expenses are also large, their family used to be at least middle-class, life is more exquisite, that means more living expenses. No matter how big a family is, it can't withstand the loss and sit on the mountain.
It's been four years since I was laid off, and the family's car has been sold, and a previous home has been sold. Now only this house is left. But there are still two children to raise, and the family also has to spend. The pressure can be imagined.
There is no money, the family is not harmonious, the family is noisy every day, husband and wife quarrel, mother and son quarrel, everything can quarrel. For children, too, I hate that children can become talents at once, forcing children to study every day, learning in the morning, learning in the afternoon, and learning in the evening. Watching TV for a while more will be noisy, and the sense of family atmosphere is super oppressive. The husband and wife have fallen out to the point of divorce.
And the state of our brother-in-law is the biggest change, he used to be full of spirit, but now he is close to malaise, his temper is also very bad, and he can't adapt to the huge gap in finding a job.
I don't know how he changed himself, if he doesn't join the work as soon as possible, he will really be eliminated by society, unemployment is terrible, and he is only 40 years old now, there are still so many youths, and the children are still so young, if you can't get out of the trough, what a terrible thing.
Think about yourself, what to do in case you lose your job.
