Should just being “employed” make people/workers happy? On one level, any job
is better than no job. But we also derive much of our identities and
self-esteem from our work. If you aren’t happy with it, you’re probably not
happy generally. Unhappy people can still vote and are often easy marks for
shameless politicians to manipulate. Their spending patterns change, too. So it
ends up affecting everyone and everything. Unhappy Employment There’s this
plight of people who, while not necessarily poor, aren’t where they think they
should be—and perhaps once were. This disappointment isn’t just in their minds;
the economy really has changed. Yes, you can probably get a job if you are
physically able, but the odds it will support you and a family, if you have
one, are lower than they once were.)
