Career development 6d
A colleague, George, is losing his job. He's just turned 40. George has spent the past decade in service—across seven duty stations around the world, mostly with the United Nations. Being a UN worker has been more than just a job. It has shaped his identity, grounded his values, and defined much of his adult life.
The idea of stepping away from something he loves, something he's poured his heart into, is scary. George is taking practical steps: reviewing finances, restructuring loans, cancelling long-term commitments where he can. Still, it’s hard not to take this personally. Help George to navigate an unexpected transition.

    In life when you are employed remember that one day you will be unemployed, so its advisable to have some assets which are set aside so that Incase... such scenarios happen and you find your self in a position that requires you to offset some debts you can always sell off those assets as you find a way of stabilizing, in life we expect those changes and if they happen don't panic, stay calm and whatever you do in a calm mind will surely work for you but if you panic,this will surely lead to dangerous mistakes will you will regret later more

    True, Bazil. Setting aside resources presupposes that they are available in the first place. Planning for emergencies is a wise idea.

    He shouldn't worry, another door will open for him, and even a much better one.
