Only 15% of workers actually report that they are “very satisfied with their work. So why are they not passionate about what they do and what can we do about it? Somehow people are having a hard time finding a way to bring passion to their jobs. Especially the older workers are experiencing the largest drop in job satisfaction over the last 25 years. In the 1980’s, nearly 70% of workers age 65 or older were happy at work. In today’s surveys job satisfaction in this age group has dropped down to only 46% of workers. The primary issue seems to be the lack of control that people feel in their lives now. They don’t feel they have a lot of autonomy in what they do on a day to day basis. They don’t feel that what they say has much impact at work, and many times they don’t feel they can be themselves at work.  Join Flex Hour Jobs as we discuss ways you can find the job you love or at least turn the job you have into one that you love. 00:31:00Flex Hour Jobsnotelecommuting jobs,freelance,Work For Yourself,flex hour jobsNearly 53% of employees in America today say that they are unsatisfied with their jobs.

If you take into account veterans who have served in active duty since 2001, the unemployment for young veterans is sitting at 12.1%. The unemployment rate for all veterans (including young and old ) is at an all time high of 21.1%. Because of this fact and a number of others, many of our vets returning home are finding themselves unemployed and often even homeless. On a national level, an estimated 107,000 veterans  are finding themselves without a home each night.    So how about them finding jobs? They are returning to a slow economy which having trouble getting back on it’s feet. They are finding their houses often in danger of default or foreclosure and their spouses are having trouble finding employment too.   Join Flex Hour Jobs as we discuss the mental health issues our vets face and how we can help them to find jobs. 00:31:00Flex Hour Jobsnoveterans,jobless veterans,hiring veterans,mental health issues,veteran job helpWe know now that our valued service men and women who have been returning home, are finding that it is very difficult to find a job and fit back into the civilihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/flexhourjobs/2013/12/13/perfecting-the-2014-job-searchWorkhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/flexhourjobs/2013/12/13/perfecting-the-2014-job-search/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/flexhourjobs/2013/12/13/perfecting-the-2014-job-searchFri, 13 Dec 2013 20:30:00 GMTPerfecting the 2014 Job SearchThe outlook for the 2014 economy and jobs is positive.

Whether that is really that the unemployed have given up, that people are taking jobs with less income than before, or whatever may be the case, still it’s good to believe that the New Year will be better than the last few. So during this slow time of hiring during the holidays, it’s a terrific time to do some self- assessment and plan your direction for the 2014 Job hunt. One good idea is to spend some time asking yourself who it is that you really are, what it is that you want from a job, where you are right now on that path, and where your interests lie.  Join Flex Hour Jobs as we discuss what you can do in the down time of the holidays to prepare for the upcoming 2014 Job Search. 00:31:00Flex Hour Jobsnojob search tips,resume help,new job search,new job,flex hour jobsThe outlook for the 2014 economy and jobs is positive.

Only 15% of workers actually report that they are “very satisfied with their work. So why are they not passionate about what they do and what can we do about it? Somehow people are having a hard time finding a way to bring passion to their jobs. Especially the older workers are experiencing the largest drop in job satisfaction over the last 25 years. In the 1980’s, nearly 70% of workers age 65 or older were happy at work. In today’s surveys job satisfaction in this age group has dropped down to only 46% of workers. The primary issue seems to be the lack of control that people feel in their lives now. They don’t feel they have a lot of autonomy in what they do on a day to day basis. They don’t feel that what they say has much impact at work, and many times they don’t feel they can be themselves at work.  Join Flex Hour Jobs as we discuss ways you can find the job you love or at least turn the job you have into one that you love. 00:31:00Flex Hour Jobsnojob search,flex hour jobs,flex schedule jobs,telecommuting jobsNearly 53% of employees in America today say that they are unsatisfied with their jobs.
