Losing your job can be a real<br />

kick in the teeth. Yesterday<br />

all was well. You could plan<br />

for the end of the month,<br />

pay your bills and support<br />

your family. Then your boss<br />

has ‘the conversation’ with<br />

you and suddenly your world<br />

has changed. The future is<br />

suddenly a scary place where<br />

you expect a upward battle<br />

looking for a new job in a<br />

tough economic environment<br />

and with bills to pay.<br />

JOB<br />

E<br />

Losing your job is rated the 5th most stressful<br />

things that will ever happen to you in your<br />

entire life. It is rated very close to going to jail<br />

or finding out you have a major illness. If this<br />

happens to you (for whatever reason) it is<br />

important to take a few deep breaths. You are<br />

not your job. That is something you do to make<br />

money to care for your family. It does not define<br />

you. Then you need to consider what steps you<br />

can take to improve your situation. Lets look at<br />

a few options you have:<br />

First off, you need to go home and discuss the<br />

matter with your family. Don’t try to hide it from<br />

them. Together you can deal with the situation<br />

as a team. Don’t try go solo, be honest, open<br />

and realistic.
