In difficult times, women are fired first. There are objective and subjective reasons for this. Objective: some women work half-heartedly - for their own pleasure, or formally, for the sake of money. They are less important for the business than men who devote themselves entirely to work. The subjective reasons are as follows: the employer has a deep inner conviction - a fired man, out of despair and lack of demand, will certainly get sick, drink himself to death or hang himself, while for a woman it is habitual to sit at home. Therefore, in difficult times, of two workers who are equal in qualifications and professionalism, he will most likely refuse a woman. At the same time, it is not taken into account that at the present time many women are raising children without a permanent partner, and even helping retired parents - they are the main breadwinners in a family where the husband is doing something very exciting, but not profitable. When the husband-breadwinner loses his job or goes bankrupt, a woman is even worse off than when she is fired. There is no money, and the partner swears, whines, suffers morally and is physically ill. And the woman suffers from her own helplessness. In the labor market during a period of unemployment, no one needs people like her. While life becomes more expensive and unemployment rises, femininity loses its value. What we love ourselves for - for the ability to purr, flirt, dress up - is not needed by anyone. In difficult times, men solve their problems, run away from home to earn money, fall into despair and rush around with their “I” - “do I need someone in the new world?”, “Will I be able to achieve success again?” And they don’t notice us women. The fact remains that every crisis, perestroika or difficult times strikes at femininity, at its beauty, and this loss never returns to us. We always have the opportunity to survive difficult times with honor. To do this, you need to know your strengths and weaknesses and choose your own personal path to overcome difficulties. There are many ways to get through difficult times, but you can consider the main classic ways: Cope with difficulties on your own, do not count on the support of a man who makes a decision with you or for you. Try to find a man to lean against and who will be protection for you. You use the situation to move up. Find a successful and promising husband or lover who can provide everything. Find a man who will listen to your ideas and idolize, and you will inspire her to new exploits.
