Unemployed USA 

Unemployed, now – what?!

A s of September 19th, I joined the 9.4 million Americans that are unemployed. What dismal numbers for America. I now have to find away to pay mortgage and other bills. I’ve thought of consulting work but am not outgoing enough to promote myself. I’m really good at pharmaceutical audits and even better as a speaker and trainer. I’ve been told this hundreds of times. I held a training session last week and out of the 28 evaluations returned, the lowest mark was a 4 and the highest you can get is a 5.  This is the norm for me when I do presentations. I would love to work for myself but have always held back because I feared the uncertainty – the unknown.

True unemployment rate in US is already at 20%

Posted Jul 06 2009, 01:16 PM by Anthony Mirhaydari
Really, how hard is it to find a job? Was June’s horrid numbers, in which 467,000 people lost their jobs compared to 345,000 in May, a one-time fluke? Or does it mean that all those Wall Street economists who believe the economic recovery is starting are dead wrong?

What to do in tough times: How to make the most out of your business

“In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity”.
-Albert Einstein

For some who is still holding breath and waiting for things to “get back to normal,” it’s time to start taking in some air so you can get used to the fact that things may not ever be like they were. Things just might get even better, but for the time being, entrepreneurs need to shift and adjust. It’s not enough to just go with the flow.
