How To Handle Post-Recession Job Stress
Post-Recession? I think most people are still dealing with Recession Job Stress. It gets worse:
The worst of the waves of layoffs may be over, but countless American workers who still have their jobs are unhappy at them, overloaded with increased responsibilities, short of colleagues to share the burden, and unsure where they can turn to look for something better. Few people got raises last year–many took pay cuts–and it’s not looking like pay hikes will come anytime soon.
Again, this viewpoint strikes me as seriously off target. I equate this type of unhappiness to people who complain that their ice cream is too cold. There are countless people attempting to find employment so stories involving the stress of not receiving a raise seems out of touch.
