Job Security - is there such a thing?

[Eve's Apple Project]

---

If you own your own business like it's a guaranteed thing? LOL what BS!

it is only BS if the person running the business is full of BS...the question here was about JOB SECURITY. are you sure you are secured in a regular day job nowadays?? hahaha your lving in the past bai, wake up. LOYALTY or licking your bosses balls doesn't always work.Yes daghan problema ang magbusiness, so what?! but you can be sure nga di ka ma-FIRED kay you are your own boss (or perhaps your customers, but they can't fire you). mao nay kalahi-an bai.. wait did i say that it is a 100% guarantee? wahaha. like i said everything that starts, has to come to an end. same ra na sa business bai. so if para nimo BS ang magbusiness, nahala start practicing pagka-sip2 then let's see how far you can go..wahaha


@esoylegaspi: you can never be 100% sure in everything we do bai. we don't control everything. like you, naa kay business (sa laing section). can anybody fire you if you did something wrong or you are in a bad mood? wa man diba?! bec it is yours. that means that your job is secured (job description: Owner/proprietor). mas dako ang risk but you can take control of your business provided you have the proper knowledge (plus you continue to learn & improve/expand). like i said it is only BS if the person running the business is full of BS..

EAP, agree, we don't control everything, but "WE" can control most of everything. On another input Metz, he mentions preparation, (by savings) improves our control, however there is still the power of "WE", and this is what I am trying to "synthesize" as I make out our "collective" thoughts. That is how do we use the power of "WE"?

I do not lick my bosses balls Jesus you do not know me from Adam. I am so sure secured ko sa ako job, hell if all companies start going under sure ko the company I work for will be the last to fail. Bisan pustahan pa.

My family has a business that has near 5k clients. But I still choose to work for my particular company. A matter of preference plus the perks are unmatchable anywhere.

Aw di diay 100%? Then where is the security in that na it is easier for a business to fail than for one to not find work. What immaturity saying di daw ka mafire without taking into consideration the fact that most businesses fail the first year. Kana mufail imo business same ra na sa natangtang ka. Getting fired will not set you back as far as having your business fail.

So what are you trying to sell?

aw, there you go...you feel secured because naa nakay back up (family business). how bout kadtong walay luxury parehas nimo?! like you, i work in a company that i FEEL nga dili modown, bisan pustahan pasad simply because of our CEO who has the CAN DO attittude. in saying that, should i say that i am indespensable? hahaha..truth is, everybody is despensable kay someone is always better than you. even hired CEO's loose their job, kita pa kaha?!

risky jud nang business bai, it is a gamble for gamblers...but business for the real businessminded. go ask your family if they want to go back working for other people. dba the answer is NO? i never said business is perfect. the question is JOB security, so how can you be secured when you are only an employee (labi pajud sa private companies)?

me selling what?!

Another good idea but dangerous, - making your way out of the rat race. if you move out you can get trampled just like the race track. You will cut into someone's path. Again it goes back to the power of "WE", think of it like a relay...and how this will benefit us...

lolz. why would you let that happen? This is my life and I wont allow anyone to as you say "trampled" me or step down or still my dreams... Stategy bro, be wise and diskarte na na sa tao...

No, Save save save as much as you can for back-up purposes...

Okey, I take it that you have already plotted your course and following your strategy-great to hear that, strategize and innovate, yes, you are one of the few out of the many that could make it out of the rat race. As far as I can see most people get trampled along the way if not most of what I have seen are people who just go along the flow. You can be a change maker and can make the difference.

There had been many inputs and ideas that have been shared on job security and some shared common ideas and some shared conflicting views. Some believe that saving is the preparation to job security, some believe getting double jobs, some believe that they are secured in their jobs, some have already plotted out their career paths, that means, each one had a plan come what may next week, next month or next year. Some may not have any.

But many things can happen along the way, just like what happened today, my other thread was closed. I had plotted and planned to synthesize the many ideas that came in and all of a sudden somebody dropped a bomb. So many bright ideas that I wanted brew and come up with a solution - such as "is there hope for the Philippines" and how can we break the vicious cycle after brainstorming. What do we need to do and action plan to take?

Having said that, means, no matter how I prepared the topic, stimulate the discussion and get people involved anything can happen along the way because someone pulled the plug. That's it-finish. Yes that is life, and part of what we have to go through, some bitterness some sweet, some tough, some soft, however, as I have always repeatedly mentioned the power of "WE" you and I and the rest, that means, if we want to do something such as create a job security - that calls for each of us to be strong, bonded together, connected, linked and networked. That is what we can do to change, we have to set our differences apart and look towards a common goal. I am not sure if it were still possible to appeal the closing of the thread but if not, I wish to close it here - you can read the thread "is there hope for the Philippines" so you can follow the thread.

What is common about this "Job-security" and " is there hope of the Philippines" is within each of us. Some may not need another because they are now in their comfort zone, and as long as they are secured and comfortable that is enough. What fragments the country and makes us easy to manipulate is because we are divided in thought, belief, region, dialect, race, creed, financial standing. As what was mentioned - for evil to flourish it is enough good men do nothing...

Those that manipulate these country is only about 1% and 9% that they feed. That means, there are only 10% who share about 80% of the wealth of this country while 60% share 20% of the wealth. The remaining 30% have nothing at all. Thus many others have to go out of this beloved country because of the lack of wealth. The Philippines is a very rich country - so much wealth in terms of resources and manpower - that is indesputable. But much these wealth goes only to the 1% and their 9% cohorts. The job-security is in this country waiting for us, if we just know how to go about it. I am not asking for armed revolution, we should work smart and not hard. Things don't have to be difficult for all of us, but as long as "WE" are divided (60%) then we can be like sheeps destined to the slaughter house.

What "WE" do next defines our future and do you still want to be like the helpless, hopeless sheep?

Job security is in this country - the Philippines as I said is a very very very rich country - but there is a "ring a round of roses" - or "musical chair" happening in the high level of our society(they are only 1%). There is more than enough wealth both discovered and undiscovered that if these wealth is just shared there is really no need to be the modern slaves that the Filipinos are now doing. With all the plunder happening left and right happening right before our eyes, the kind of leadership - moral, political and religious - and those that most of us practice (turning a blind eye or oblivious to these suffering/plight of the 30% - that are exploited by the 1%) there can be no job-security.

What is happening now - are just political "pogi-points" trying to look good, "pakitang-gilas", but it is only a matter of time when the dust settle down when these 1% together with the 9% will start their "dancing" around, this is the pattern. Those religious leaders who are suppose to protect and lead the flock, guide us - are sleeping with the enemy. They do not really posses the values and lifestyle JC has taught and preached down the streets.(except for some perhaps). These leaders are waiting for the good samaritan to do the dirty work for them.

Job Security - is in "WE", and for those who are now in their comfort zone - this is the best time to dig up your trenches as we will not run but stay here to the last breathe. I am tired of running around countries (modern slave) and yet I have a very very very very rich country. We have these one and only beautiful country and we can create our job security here for us and for our children.

Yes - let us create this job security - secured that our families and those that follow us will enjoy, will enjoy the real wealth of this God given paradise, let us protect this country - it is the only one we've got. We can make a difference, the chosen few...
