mr_busdriver   10 #1 Posted October 21, 2008 If you were to lose your job, would you try to find a job in the role that you lost, or would you retrain? if you were to retrain, what would you do to upskill yourself, in order to gain employment in the future?

Jason Bourne   11 #2 Posted October 21, 2008 If I was in that situation, I'd retrain in something I enjoyed and something that I could give back to the community, after taking so much from them over the years.  But what though?

mr_busdriver   10 #4 Posted October 21, 2008 This is the ultimate question, I know of people who have decided to try their hand at a new career, only to descover that after qualification, there are no jobs.  So what would you do? learn a trade, or get a degree, after all, should you lose your job and then try to retrain the last thing you want is to end up in debt, with a qualification thats worth nothing and find yourself no more employable than you are now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
