Job security with companies

by Anelisa

LABOR DAY this year will be not a day to celebrate for a lot of Americans. If you have a GREAT JOY and are secure, you can certainly celebrate and all in America can celebrate for you. Perhaps the barbecues should be in your homes inviting your family members, friends, neighbors, and acquaintances who are layed off or fired. Add to your guest list those who are walking on shaky grounds in their job not knowing when that pink slip will show up on their desk or given to them personally.

Once that salary is not there ECONOMICS JUST GO DOWNHILL in spite of doing all the right things. Many people are not able to find a job as good as their last one and have to settle for a lot less and insecurity.

INSURANCE is a big issue since that sooner or later goes down the drain. LIFE INSURANCE and HEALTH INSURANCE are the MAJOR LOSSES. DISABILITY INSURANCE will end eventually. Then what?
