No Job Secure
I read that around 10,000 jobs at Royal Dutch Shell will be slashed amid low oil prices, restructuring plans as well as due to a new Chief Executive. Well stuff like this always happens when a new head is brought in.
My brother who works in Shell will be one of those at risk of being cut. Just sometime ago, I thought he had a great job, well paid and good benefits. I think this comes as no surprise but then, even as a pessimist, to me things have begun to turn around. Perhaps I was wrong. All the cash injection into the world economy might not have been enough.
Still the lesson here great as things are, it is always good to have a plan B. Or a plan C for that matter. The article is here. Develop your skills wherever you work and make those skill portable. If not, then make use of your free time and develop a hobby that can pay.
What about you? Do you have a plan B?
