That's what I keep telling myself. The unemployment statistics are alarming. Even first world countries have issues when it comes to employment. A large number of people want to work, or keep their work but are unable to.
Find a job in a good company, keep it, and grow with the company. This is what my parents used to say, and it's very good advice. If your job or company doesn't suit you, then find another one but make sure that you don't damage your reputation and credentials by slacking off. The company is paying you, after all, and it deserves quality work coming from you.
If you do like your job and your company, then good for you. Everyone will reach a plateau in their job, but we must try our best to get out of this rut as soon as possible - or suffer the consequences. Destroying a reputation takes a lot less time than building it and it's even faster if you do it on your own.
Given the above, it's been a challenge to understand why a lot of people seem not to care about their jobs. Is this the trend now? Is this rise in job dissatisfaction due to bad companies or the need for instant gratification thriving in the newer workforce? Are we looking at a trend of immature and bratty employees with a bad case of attention deficiency syndrome? I hope not.
