I have always said this. If someone loses his job, it is his fault. People need to enhance their knowledge, by learning new skills which are useful in the job market. I know people who have been doing the same job for 30 or 40 years continuously. Even they need to realize that their jobs are not secure. Learning never stops and it helps you to get an advantage in the job market when compared to others.
The current situation has nothing to do with skills and knowledge. Some people lost their job due to the economic situation. Some were forced to lay-off employees, some had completely closed their businesses. However, it is true nothing is permanent that is why learning new sets of knowledge and skill to expand your job opportunity is needed. Especially now that most people are seeking jobs if you have a wide experience and skill, that will be your edge and advantage.
Motivation is much needed now to keep hope alive losses as a result of devastating effect of the virus is catastrophic hence we have to motivate ourselves to move on and stay save.
