About This Quote
When an employee leaves their job out of no fault of their own, it can be very difficult for them to return. Many people who have lost jobs and haven’t found another one in the same field or with the same benefits feel like they need to find something else. Many people aren’t able to find a new job, so they take a job at a place where the pay is low and the hours are long. As time goes on, many people leave their jobs without much regard for their own safety or security.
When you’re unemployed, you may not be able to live comfortably and you may constantly need money for things like food and rent. Also, there may be certain laws that make it difficult for you to get a job and earn money in certain ways. Even when you do find a new job, there may be other things that make it difficult for you to keep working there.
You want to work somewhere that won’t cause you stress and won’t make you feel like you need your old job back.
