A person’s first instinct when they lose their job is to find a new one right away. But it wouldn’t hurt to take a few time off and reflect why you lost the job. Maybe there’s something you lack. Maybe there’s something you can improve. Maybe you can invest in yourself more and learn new things. Learn new skill sets. Explore and experience new more things that could help you land a better and more stable job in the future.
Unfortunately not everyone has the privilege to not work and focus on themselves that’s why they never improve in terms of the job they land on. Since they don’t have the time to focus on themselves and their skills, they remain only on a specific level and their wages are also the same.
I don’t know if your country and its economy but trust me, there are countries where life is hard and really messed up.
There are countries where even those with jobs and good grades and certification are still struggling and finding life very difficult, you can’t afford to stay without a job.
I’ve grown to realize that, everyone is fighting a battle and you never can tell what battle the next person is going through, hence I’ve learnt not to judge people by assumptions but rather hear things from the horses mouth.
I also do understand the point op is coming from, and if I’m not wrong, op is assuming that, for someone who have been working, should have savings somewhere and be able to take some time off to evaluate their lives and the reasons to why they where dropped from work but op, I’m sorry to say that, the economy situation lately has made savings a very difficult thing and as such, people work just to pay bills and keep life running and as such we don’t have to blame anyone at this point for not saving.
Thats the reality of life on which it doesnt really matter on where you do live on which you will be still needing up a job in order for you to survive because this is the primary thing on where you can be able to obtain up and if you dont have a job then even just that surviving for a day will really be that challenging. This is why its really that important that you should really know on how to find up yourself into some opportunities that will lead you to have a better financial situation but of course this isnt something easy because we do know that on the time that you do deal up with investment or business then this isnt something that will really be that so easy. On the moment that you do tend to dive in with these ventures then there's no way that you wont be able to pass up some challenges too. It sounds easy but its really that hard for you to do when you are tending to do it.
As for unemployment rate then each country does have its own % but of course it will really be on rankings and if you do live in a place where the numbers are high then it does basically means that competition is really that indeed high. Even if you do have a degree or simply good credentials but still it wont really be giving out that assurance that you can land a job and thats why there would really be always those people who dont have a job despite of having a good educational background. Its really indeed a huge challenge for us but we do know that this is something that a personal problem that needs to be solved out because if you wont really be doing any perseverance on resolving out such problem then you will really be sticking on being poor or jobless and thats a tough situation.
