"Unemployed? What’s the reason?!”

“Unemployed? What’s the reason?!”
By : Claudia Franco

 More than 102 million working age americans do not have a job. There are many reason for being jobless. The culture that you are from or your skin color is also a big problem with finding a job. Currently this is called racism.There are some jobs that do not accept certain people considering their skin color. This is a major reason why some people in that country do not have jobs. This is a dumb reason because if there were in the same situation that they are passing they will notice that it’s not
fair to do that.

  Gender is also a big role in unemployment. In the website is says “In 2007 women in sales occupations had an unemployment rate of 5.7%, compared with a rate of only 3.8% for men”. This quote is showing us how in some jobs they don't like women to work there because maybe it might bear too difficult for them. According to the men's percentage and the women’s we can tell that more women are unemployed than men.

               For, families being unemployed is more than just losing a job. According to what I've seen, heard, and read about being unemployed it affects your self esteem,  but most importantly your family. Some effects in the family is that they don't have enough money to eat or even to pay for their kids education. Also some kids get mad at their parents because that is their most difficult time and some kids or teenagers might ask for money from their parents and their parents are not able to give them any.


       Stress is a very big part of being unemployed. The mother and father might not eventually talk to  each other for days because the woman might be mad that the husband quit his job. Another stress is not being able to  have enough money to eat or to pay your child's education. Some people use unemployed can't even find another job and that is a big struggle for them. In the website is said “If it is hard to find one it is harder to lose it” . This quote is something that tells people to appreciate what you are given and to prove that being unemployed Is not something easy.


Being unemployed is scary and more if their is only one person in the house that pays everything and has children to feed. There are many reasons for people to care about when being unemployed. People should care about being  unemployed because If you don't have a job how are you going to survive. Having a job is something that every person should do at Some point of their lives because it helps you with many things. Some people may not go to college and not get to be what they Wanted but their are many other opportunities for them.  Another reason why they should care is because you can’t just live without any work. Paying the bills of the house is a bug priority and if you are unemployed you will not have a phone to contact with anybody, tv so entertain yourself or your family, water to take a shower or drink from, and electricity to be abler to cook or do many other things.

There are many ways that people can make a change of being unemployed.Some people might start panicking when they lose a job, built some won’t. Some of them might start right away to look for another job. But, they should not spend such a long time looking for a job because that’s when stress comes in
