My dad lost his job......?
I'm sorry. Your parents are in a scary time and need time to work it out. You can and should tell them that you are scared. They might calm down and get more rational if they realize they are scaring you. They will probably calm down as they get used to the situation and begin working on solving it. Your dad has a lot of time to find another job. Moving might be necessary and though it's awful, it might be something you will have to face. Life can throw you a curveball from time to time. Learning to adapt to change is part of growing up. Not making a fuss if moving becomes necessary is big way to help your parents get through this time.
What should I do? Dad might lose job?
Try to support your dad instead. The bad part fo this is you are gonna need to limit the stuff you buy, your parents work hard for their money and if they can't afford stuff your gonna have to pick up your pace and move one. Based on how old you are then maybe if you can go out in the neighbourhood and ask some people especially elders if you can help and then you can raise some money. If you are getting allowance then try not to beg for it if your parents are running low because they still need that money for food, their house, bills, etc. If you can ask your dad if if he can maybe try to help you find a job, my brother even in this economy crisis got a job at DQ and work is very busy there. If not try maybe babysitting for some money, or even having a garage sale and try getting your parents to join in and take everything that you don't use and sell it. You might be reading this and think well I need all my stuff, but really everyone has something's that have no use for. So try some one my methods and I wish you the best of luck for your dad and you. Wish you the best,
My dad might lose his job?
My dad had a nasty meeting at work today saying he could be fired within the next 30 days if he doesn't work harder. He's one of the highest paid managers working there and he works overtime everyday. He picked the store up from the crappy place t was and made people want to shop there now he might get fired?? If he loses his job my family will lose all of our insurance half our income. Then we'll have to downsize our home and my mom will have to close her business (she works from home) and we'll qualify for homeless. I'm so scared for him. I started crying after my mom told me that. I just need words of comfort right now. I just turned 14 and this is too much for me to handle.
I think my dad is about to lose his job?
I regret hearing this. In this "Me Me Me" society the welfare of children is, well lets just say it's not the primary concern. Fifty years ago parents found ways to stay together "for the children". At that time parents were parents who loved and didn't want to hurt the kids. Today, as I said earlier marriage today is like a formal cohabitation. At your age teens are, by nature, insecure, most of it is a result of insecurities which while usually not real, it FEELS real. Anyway talk to people, Mother, Father, pastor/priest, school counselor, or if you have older siblings I'd reach out to them.
My dad lost his job?
When employers lay off employees it is generally for business reasons and they are not able to really consider the down line consequences of that. If they did they would never be able to lay anyone off. Ideally your dad should be taking financial assistance offered to unemployed individuals and working towards finding another job. If the skills he has are not valuable in the workforce he might need to retrain in another field to find work. Many men get a huge part of their feelings of self worth from their work and when that is gone they go into a deep depression. This can make it hard for them to get going on finding another job because they are paralyzed. They can become very angry and this anger can come out towards family members. So the best things you can do are this: 1. Don't do anything that adds additional stress to the family right now. 2. Try to find creative ways to save money. 3. Be loving and supportive of your dad. 4. If you are old enough to work try to find a job to help out or to at least reduce your own living expenses. 5. Learn from your dad's experience that you need a good education and yet need to remain flexible so you are relearn and retrain yourself when life throws you a curve. 6. As you begin to work don't allow your job to become your total source of your self worth. Best wishes!
My dad lost his job?
so i just found out that my dad lost his job. ive known for a couple of months that his job was doing heavy cuts and i guess in the end the company was sold. my dad is a truck driver btw. anyways i wasnt expecting for him to lose his job yet. i mean its the holidays and usually companies hold on after christmas before they go out of bussiness. the trucking company my dad worked in was sold by another. idk what exactly happened but all i know is that my dad is out of work. i was pretty bummed because ever since this recession has started three years ago, the company he worked for was doing just fine it wasnt until this year they started to do cuts and laying of ppl. im very worried becuase ive been looking for a job all year long and i have no luck. im almost 20 in two weeks and im also in college which adds to my anxiety. i was lucky enough to recieve financial aid this year but my semester ended and my second semester starts in a month and my second round of financial aid money wont come in until like in 2 more months at least. so i have no choice but to ask for my dad for some money for my books. i feel useless and ashamed that im reaching 20 and i havent found a job but its really hard. ive been looking for a year and a half and ive only gotten one interview but i blew becuase i was very nervous. both of my parents wont stop pressuring me in getting a job. they call me lazy, which im not! i took 16 units this semester and im going to take 17 units next semester. its just very difficult for me to find a job. im applying everywhere like crazy and im going to start again soon. can anyone make me feel better? im scared that we might lose our house or i wont be able to go to school anymore. my goal is to transfer out and go to a 4 year school.
My dad lost his job what should i do?
Don't panic. Times are hard and it sounds like you and your family are having more than your fair share. You can help by being supportive. That's what good families do for each other. Do your chores and chip in more around the house without being told to. If you have pets, be vigilant in caring and cleaning up after them. If you have a younger brother or sister watch out for them more. You must stay strong and not add to their worries. Your parents will find jobs. It may be a few steps back at first but things will pan out in time. Moving to Canada sounds wonderful. It could be an adventure if you make it. Good Luck to you and yours
My Dad Just Lost His Job?
You will have some huge changes but there is really not much you can do but your folks will have to re adjust to life styles as well as you and if your dad had this good job he will find another but may take awhile but he most likely will not let your home or other thing go back . SO be patience and be kind and help out with what ever you can. If your folks have some money saved then all should be fine till dad finds another and your mom may go to work as well there is nothing to be scared of think of it as an adventure to a new town new people and new friends you might even enjoy this but have faith all will be fine and good luck no matter what happens.
I'm afraid my dad is going to lose his job?
you dont need to do anything. you just need to let your parents worry about it. everyone in every company is having their hours cut lately and if they are cutting his hours, it probably means that they are just trying to afford to keep your dad. its kind of a double edged sword. if you really want to help, and you're of age, then try to go apply for some jobs. you could also try to ask for money less often if you don't need it. other than that, you shouldn't worry, your parents should be able to take care of it. :]
