No Bonus but Lots of Separation Pays
Posted in Career, Jobs and Careers by Damien | No CommentsChristmas time is finally here and most employees are perhaps enjoying their meals and exchanging gifts, two familiar scenes when Yuletide season sinks in. But part of reality is the fact that practically a million workers (and counting) from the globe have lost their jobs, many of whom got their last paycheck in perhaps large sums. With that in mind, should you spend it all?
There are some who have saved as much as they can. Spending on a budget and making sure that they don’t go on empty. Some are planning their 2009 plan of action, much of which is to land a new job by reading the papers or visiting some job sites that provide various posts on job openings.
The people who got bonuses are quite lean this year and this can be typified by the sales of most retailers, a lot of whom admitted dwindled a lot. So while we don’t want to ruin Christmas, keep that thought that a week from now, 2009 is here. Draw out your career plans. The Year of the Ox does not seem bright thus far.
