Update On The Disposible Generation

As luck would have it my husband has been successful in finding a new job. However, this situation caused him a lot of stress. Fortunately he's in good condition and his health didn't suffer too much.

This new position he has will be a huge change. First, his commute now is twice as far as it was before. This may mean he will have to purchase a scooter to get to work. If not it will mean that he will continue to bike to work which will give me use of the vehicle a few times a week. That's fine, I just want to make sure I have use of it for my medical appointments. The traffic he's going to have to encounter will be much worse then with his last commute because he's going to have to go out onto streets without bike lanes.

The second change for him is the size of the place he will be working at. Its much smaller and he rather likes this. He will even get an office.

The third change is in our medical situation. We will have to change doctors and even our dentist will be different. Unfortunately with this job there will be minimal dental care offered. Plus no eye care is available and he won't be getting a pension. So we will have to adjust to this new situation.

Thank God that he found work so quickly. There are many unfortunate people who never find a new job because of age discrimination in the work place.

The Disposable Generation

The Disposable Generation
Unless you've been touched by this sort of thing, chances are you don't know how much this goes on. Many baby boomers are being tossed aside in favour of younger people, who will work for cheaper wages and are malable. How unfair is that!
