new chance
Few days ago my cousin opened up about lacking of work, I was earnestly listening. She told me, “I am over age, it’s so hard to find a job” I truly understand what she meant and it brought me into thinking how I can possibly help. Her predicament is one of the many factors why OFWs try their hardest to stick around overseas, some unfortunately, despite the mistreatment. It drowned me to a thought about having youth as a major capital in the work force. But what happens when you quit from one job to transfer to another? What happens when you decide to change the course of your life after 30s? Only a few can because most companies never hire experienced staff for the entry-level jobs. I remembered my former colleague who was 45 and told me how he wanted to change companies but can’t do so for fear of companies not hiring him. He said he will only resign when he’s hired by another company. He decides to stick around to the company since he was 20. I am brought to a halt. Sur
