In the eyes of young people, middle-aged people live too tangled and sticky: it takes a long time to buy a box lunch, which is not refreshing; Obviously, I am angry with the company and dare not say "no" to the leader; Everything is rushed to do, but there is no one on the year-end award; ……
Yes, middle-aged people are too timid to hate it.
Because, many people did not expect that the iterative speed of the times would be so fast. At one time, they thought that it was their inevitable life track to work until they were old and enjoy their old age with a pension. However, the only person who can enjoy this kind of life is our previous generation.
Post-80s and post-90s need a formal status quo: ready to lose their jobs. Unemployment will become a very common and normal phenomenon, and anyone in the workplace will face unemployment at any time.
Unemployment itself is neither harmful nor terrible. What is terrible is that these unemployed people have crushed their enterprising spirit. Many people still don't have the skills to look after nursing homes in middle age.
The real iron rice bowl is not an enduring company, but your ability to settle down!
Many people in the workplace have time to dance disco when they are young, to brush Tik Tok, to chase soap operas, but not to strengthen their skills.
Even if they spend some time practicing basic tools such as PPT and PS, they tend to trust their work too much. Some people who have passed the civil service examination are more confident and think that this job is an iron rice bowl, and work can make them worry-free all their lives.
As we all know, the real iron rice bowl is not a tall building standing on the ground, but a core skill you have. This skill is not attached to any entity company. Even if you leave a company, you can still be reused elsewhere. This is the foundation of your life.
Every time I talk about this topic, I think of the toll collectors in Tangshan. 20 18 Tangshan cancels the toll stations of surrounding roads and bridges. For the employees of toll stations, the cancellation of toll stations means "middle-aged unemployment".
The netizen filmed a video in which an elder sister complained in tears-"I promised to be an iron rice bowl for life. How can you say no? " "We spent all our youth here. Now I am 36 years old and can do nothing but charge! "
Yes, stability is the biggest instability in the hands of others!
In fact, most people in the workplace are "toll collectors". This day will come sooner or later. How to avoid the embarrassing situation of middle-aged unemployment?
How to resolve the unemployment crisis?
The ancients said: there are specialties in the industry; There is also a folk saying: art is self-defense, and I am afraid that art is not true.
"One move is fresh, eat all over the sky", infinitely enlarge your "bright spot" in the workplace, and you can achieve the greatest "I".
(1) Infinitely enlarge your own highlights!
"Natural selection, survival of the fittest", this law is perfect for the workplace, and what can stay must be the best or the most unique.
Some time ago, a company boss told a story. Their company is relatively small, with only a few dozen employees. One of them is a young man who just graduated for two years. In the sales department, his performance is average, at best, he is qualified.
However, the young man has a unique skill, that is, doing PPT is particularly fast, and it is very stylish and full of beauty. Almost recognized as a master. The boss usually has more meetings and time is tight, so most of the PPT is given to this young man.
Later, the company's performance declined and it was forced to lay off half of its employees. Originally, the young man's performance was not enough to keep him, and his department leaders also included the young man in the list of layoffs. When the result was handed over to the boss, the boss's first sentence was: Leave him to me, what if he leaves? Who can guarantee to make a better PPT than him?
In the end, the young man left a good PPT, which is irreplaceable in the workplace.
People in the workplace must learn to enlarge their own bright spots infinitely, and don't pursue the all-round talent model in vain. As long as you study one thing thoroughly, there will always be food in this field!
(2) Find a job that is more popular as you get older.
Since age will constrain the development of the workplace, is there any occupation that will get rid of the age limit? In other words, is there a profession that is more valuable as you get older?
Of course there is! The older you get, the more valuable you are. In other words, the more experience, the more money you make. This is what we often call "empirical industry".
According to statistics, doctors, antique appraisers, auditors, teachers, architects, skilled workers and consultants are generally considered. All belong to the industry of "seniority".
Of course, not everyone can persist in these industries, so you should choose your favorite job according to your own conditions.
③ Develop a second career and study financial planning.
Some analysts have predicted that "everyone will be a slash youth in the future", that is to say, the status quo of one person and one post does not exist in the future, and it is normal for one person to hold several positions.
Now everyone is exposed to a huge amount of information, and the timeliness is fast, and everyone's learning ability is unlimited. As long as you are willing to specialize in research, you can become an expert in a certain field in almost two years according to the law of 10000 hours.
Therefore, instead of wasting time on brushing audio and video, it is better to insist on developing a new career that you like, which will not only bring spiritual pleasure, but also bring practical economic benefits.
If one day your boss says to you: So-and-so, I won't fire you, go through the formalities.
At this time, you won't be flustered. As the saying goes, the east is not bright and the west is bright. You have three or four skills. Are you still afraid of not finding a new job?
So the question is, can you live a carefree life just by making money?
Don't!
Can make money, can also use money! The so-called use of money is not just spending money. What's more important is to learn how to manage money, learn Qian Shengqian, and make sure that money will increase in your hands.
In the next 20 years, everyone should learn to manage money. I will ignore you if I don't manage my money.
The importance of asset allocation may not be significant when you are young, because when you are young, you are in the stage of increasing the value of the workplace, and your income increases year by year, but when you reach middle age or even old age, you will find that your income will be greatly reduced.
At this time, you will feel deeply powerless. Without income, your stress will naturally come up and your anxiety will spread.
However, if you learn to allocate assets when you are young, and you can ensure that the money on hand will increase by 5%-8% every year, it means that even if you don't work, you will have a stable income, which will not only ease the financial pressure in real life, but also make your life more leisurely.
Life is not easy, life is long. In the face of the inevitable unemployment in middle age, only by thinking about the retreat as early as possible can we be prepared and live a decent life in middle age instead of suffering.
Finally, I want to remind you that middle-aged unemployment is not terrible at all, because you are not struggling alone. You have the whole family to support you and your family to tide over the difficulties together. Isn't this the best memory of life?
