The Ax of Recession is Already Slashing…

I came across Huffington Post and saw this banner headline:

We recently celebrated the Chinese New Year for the year of the Ox and just after 24 hours, we are now celebrating the year of the Ax, as numerous news from the internet and mainstream media propagated the doom and gloom of lay-offs – the effect of the recession ax slashing every job it meets on the way.

We are talking about thousands of jobs to be axed within the course of a few months and it will last throughout the year. The gloomy news is just telling us one truth: no matter if you are having a six-digit job or working as a janitor – no job is recession proof. Even dogs and cats are not spared from the recession, as many homeowners chose to abandon their pets – left out either dying or dead.

And the axing is taking a toll among the workers…

So can you think of any job that proved to be recession proof? I dont know if there is any but feel free to leave a comment or opinion after this post.

But then again, I believed this recession is aiming to teach us something: GO BACK TO THE BASICS OF LIVING. Of which I believed to be a helpful solution that can help us survive in this tough economic times, coupled with wise money spending.
