I lost my job, how about you guys?

[AicecreaME]

It’s really hard to lose a job during this pandemic. If it’s hard to get by for those who have a stable job (which working days were reduced) how much more for those who became unemployed? These people no longer have a work to sustain their needs like paying bills, paying rent, and food budget.

This pandemic really burdened most especially the average and lower class of the society. Majority of them in our country were depending on the local government units’ food tranche and supplementary amelioration programs just to survive the daily basis. This is really disheartening. However, we can always find some opportunities amidst the unfortunate circumstances happening right now. If you have a savings, you can get some and invest it to something you trust that could generate you an income. For example, taking a risk in investing on Bitcoin, having some kind of small business like food stall just in front of your house, etc. This could help you get by and eventually can help you in the long run, if you know how to manage it wisely.

There are many unfortunate events as I’m writing this at the moment, but we should always try to look for the silver linings and take the situation on our advantage. We may not have the same resources and opportunities, but we can always make the best out of what we currently have.

I am glad I'm tied with crypto because it allows me not to pay attention to my "real" work that much.
Happily, I haven't been fired (yet), but it doesn't bother me as much as it could.

I'm sorry for you! In which industry and in which country did you lose your job, if that's what you want to say? I'm just curious because it varies a lot from country to country. In some countries many lose their jobs and in others very few.

In my country, many people have lost their jobs due to covid-19 pandemic. It was caused by decreased product sales. I was a clothing business owner who has to lay off my employees because I can no longer afford to pay their salaries because my income has decreased considerably since the coronavirus. I hope this pandemic will end soon.

Thanks, a few more details as you provided makes the situation more understandable. I hope for you and all the others which are affected strongly by this pandemia that it will end soon. But I am not very optimistic that it will change much before 2022. There are still so many uncertainties regarding vaccinations which are the only hope. Hoping that the virus is appearing from one day to another is an illusion.

Obviously doubts remain. They are rushing through the trials and therefore some of the researchers and analysts are skeptical about the efficiency and the possibility of side-effects. The pharma companies are claiming that their vaccines are effective, and the trials prove it. Now we need to choose which version we should believe. At this point, there is hardly any option, other than to wear masks and maintain social distancing.

Nobody can be trusted if it's still in testing I'm not really sure whether this is effective for mass production and use throughout? I am afraid that there will be side effects when it has been injected because I have seen some after vaccinating with trials but still nothing has been completely successful.

Never mind, I better wear a mask like you and won't creep out of the house because the pandemic is now getting more and more lockdown.

Yeah, there's nothing safe right now, there are plenty of vaccines that have done trial but still a failure. It's pretty sure that they will use people that have been affected by COVID-19 as their lab rats and if failed, they will say they died from the virus.

I don't know what's more dangerous right now if they have implemented mass vaccination throughout the country, it will be chaos.

It is certain that the failure must have occurred because there is no certainty from which company the vaccine was produced, whether China made it again?

Even in my country more vaccines will be bought and distributed to all the people. Will this be a controversy?
People do not necessarily want to do the vaccine, they are afraid of failure and there will be a big risk when they taste it.

Oh well, I will still refuse the vaccine, but I will take care of myself and wear a mask wherever I go.

It's really hard to lose your job at a time like this. I hope that at least some compensation was paid to you.

I think you did not read the OP's post properly. They clearly stated that he is getting 130 dollars from government as unemployment benefits.

I have lost my job because of Covid-19, and unfortunately, the government only provides me with 130 dollars as unemployment benefits. There was already an economic crisis in the country where I live, and this has increased even more after the pandemic. I am looking for a new job every day but I haven't been successful so far. Despite this, I still keep my hope that these days will pass.

Are you getting $130 dollars per week or per month? In some other countries, the governments are not even giving anything. There is nothing like unemployment benefits and in United States I heard govt paying $400 to $600 weekly to those who lost their jobs in Covid crises.

There lots of people lost her job during the lockdown and some of them are still surviving. So, It's common they're facing a financial crunch. Most countries economical condition very poor comparing as before. Now we have to accept this bad situation without griping. You can cry and grumble or you can battle and transcend this. The decision is yours.

unfortunately the current economic crisis occurs due to the influence of the spread of the corona virus, this has left many countries paralyzed, I realize this and various countries are collapsing economies, more state debt, many people are being laid off because some may be infected by several people, currently in my country when there are job vacancies, more and more people are registering and they don't care about health protocols anymore, they are fighting over each other to get a place, even though like that there are some companies that already understand and they hold deployments using an online system.

so in my opinion there are no words to give up, we have to work to survive.

Yes I lost my job because of this pandemic my boss told me he is sorry because he need to close the shop cuz his business are losing is losing money. first I don't know what to do so I ask my friend if they know any shop who need helpers but instead of that they tell about in bitcoin. At first I was still hesitant but it's not bad to try, I'm not goin to lose me and I tried. What I thought was a scam, that's what will help me with the money.

If you need fiat money try some online freelance sites where you can earn some money for living, as for me I've learned trading crypto and doing ok so far, not worry too much about the job.

The thing is, a lot of people who lost their jobs during the pandemia are looking for jobs online now and a lot of them joined services like upwork or clickworker, what caused a crash in the hourly rates. I use upwork to give some work away from time to time and I noticed that since March the hourly rates are decreasing steadily and competition is increasing. For example, before the crisis I had to pay up to $20/hr (normally between $13-15) for some programming tasks. Two weeks ago, when I offered my last job, someone very experienced offered the work for $9.15. Never before I noticed such low rates.

Major changes in the economy of every country had change and most of these changes drags the economy down and these are cause by the pandemic. There are plenty restriction and rules that are being implemented to ensure everyone safety scarcity of resources are everywhere and almost everything cost double. Every life have changed and everyone are striving to survive.
As of now cryptocurrencies may once again raise to the top the demand for fiat money have been decrease due to an increased demand for digital currency because most of the transaction today are done online.

Right, everyone will not do the same job in one place because every individual and also every region at least has differences in many things. When I or anyone else lives in an area that still has the opportunity to generate income from a job that can be utilized, then the job may not be good in other areas. So, I believe that each region can still be used with the skills that each individual has, so we only need to find out what opportunities can still be used properly in the area and also in this kind of situation.

Its true where as mentioned that there's a specific need and whats not on a that certain region and as mentioned where you do need to find out on what it is.

We are all heavily been affected with this pandemic and lots had lost their jobs where we do really end up on making some alternatives for us to earn for able for us to survive.

If you wont find other way they would really be having a big problem.There are actually lots of ways depending on how you do really seek of it.

We have our own skills to utilize on and its up to someones dedication and hardwork on finding these opportunities.

The economy now in other places are sloy opening. This means that there are opportunities already to earn. Here in our place the the tourism is now open and are already accepting local for them to slowly recover by opening the establishment despite the virus. It seems that they are now underestimating thr covid19 but yes the government had no choice but to open the economy because the government could not support anymore the financial or the basic needs for the community.

I think the key is to remain a positive person and have a clear mind in taking many things to be able to deal with it. If one is missing, then another will pop up too, well it always does in general. Opportunities are still wide open, especially for those of us who already know the world of crypto and the internet more deeply, this can still be one important thing that is indeed one of the lighting in the financial side of the current situation.
