There's no such thing as job security!

Written by Jer Strausser

Yesterday was a beautiful day here in Pennsylvania, and my fiance' and I decided to take advantage of it. After an hour of driving repparttar

countryside, we decided to visit repparttar 109389

cemetary where some of her family members were laid to rest.

Upon arrival, we noticed right away that there were many "new" additions to repparttar 109390 small resting place. Being repparttar 109391 entreprenuer I am, I quickly said, "Man, now here's a job that offers job security!" Think about, it's repparttar 109392 one thing in life that EVERYBODY is going to do!

Quickly changing repparttar 109393 subject, my fiance' stated that her job offers job security also, because she processes dental claims. "As long as everybody has teeth, I'll have a job", she said, and that was pretty much repparttar 109394 end of that....

Until today! As I was sitting at my computer, doing some work, I got to thinking about our little conversation, when it hit me. There is NO such thing as job security!

I know, I know, what about doctors, lawyers, dentists etc, we will always need their services. Well, that's partially true. Although I am not a psychic, I would say that it's pretty safe to assume that we will probably need them also, but let's look at repparttar 109395 big picture...

Here's a scenario; Jon is repparttar 109396 local doctor. He is a well respected doctor in repparttar 109397 area, and seems to have all repparttar 109398 work he can handle, until one day, he makes an honest mistake, and is sued for malpractice. He loses everything, including his license. Jon is now out of business. This happens more than you might think.
