Hardly needless. Employers throw out faithful and dedicated employees all the time, even in ageist industries where it is difficult for them to find another job. I saw this happen to a close friend's father; their financial stability crumbled. He seemed to have aged 10 years overnight. It was quite a few years before I saw him not visibly depressed. Despite being a talented engineer (not in software) he never found an engineering job again.
- DiggyJohnson 5y agoHow is this relevant? Presumably the reason we’re discussing bc in this thread for working longer hours isn’t job security, but job satisfaction. I don’t see how this connects, frankly.
- kranner 5y agoI was responding to a comment that spoke about employers who value employees as if this is always clear to employees, or even true in the long run.
- 10000truths 5y agoIn an employer throws you out, then they ostensibly don’t value you enough to keep paying you.
