Job security a myth
by E P on May 01, 2008 12:08 PM

The problem is people have a rosy picture when they join college for a professional degree. They feel after completing graduation/post graduation they would sit in an air conditioned cabin with moolah flowing into their bank accounts and when these notions of security and a relaxed life gets busted they crib.The second problem is that out here we don't encourage kids to work till they finish college, in developed nations kids start working since 10 , it could be delivering papers/manning a grocery store till and by the time they do a proper job their outlook towards money and dignity of labour changes. We keep children protected for a long time thats the major issue.If an individual travels to office at 8 reaches there at 10 and leaves at 6 again taking 2 hours of commuting he would say that I worked for 12 hours.This running around for job security is the major problem we are a complacent lot and unless we don't change our outlook we would be a nation of cribbers.
