'Joblessness is fun on the first day, tolerable on the next and miserable then on'

A good job, the most initiating and essential factor for a modern person. When no professional job is at hand women have an option of 'home-making' to save them from the title 'jobless'. But men who is obliged to look after the family or at least himself, has no option left before him than getting into a jog even though not of his like and wish. What would be then the troubles of a jobless man?

The greatest mental problem faced by the modern society is the worries related to job. Job safety, competitions, search for a better job etc... make everyone worried and stressed. Researchers say that modern corporate lifestyle has cut short human life span because of the stress-filled life. But the mental trauma of person with a job is lilliputian when compared with the dilemma of a jobless person.

Jobs not only offer money to meet both the ends of life, but also make people feeling better and safe. Your job is your hope, dream and confidence about the days to come. But if left jobless; with no money, with no hope and with no confidence most men will be at the edge of despair and disheartenment. When there are few prises and number of competitors the outstanding one wins always. It is applicable in case of jobs also; who presents himself and skillful and outstanding wins dream jobs and better careers.

There may be number of reasons behind your joblessness. You may not be professionally qualified enough of experienced enough. The job you wish to achieve may be the one you are not qualified enough. The poor skills to project yourself at interviews also may raise a barrier between your dream job and yourself. Today career opportunities are becoming lesser and lesser as most of the new generation get hi-tech education and professional qualifications.

Jobless men may face a lot of inner troubles than the economical or social dilemmas. Joblessness may be interpreted as the disability of a person to achieve a job or it may be seen as lack of qualification to meet the requirements of the society. Moving across the streets with the bundle of resumes and certificates day by day make him depressed. It is quite natural for a person to feel doomed after so many attempts to find an apt job. When no job comes from no where people turn to anti-socials and end up in criminal activities. A jobless man has hundred and one percentage chances of becoming an anti-social if he doesn't loose his mental stability by result-less search for a job.

Men are bound with the responsibility to look after a family more than women. For a woman job is not necessary if there is a man to look after her. But for man job or career makes his social status. Hunt for a job is therefore not mere search for a way to make money, but it is the career and job that decides who is who.

It is one of the major achievements of recent research to have proved beyond reasonable doubt that joblessness causes poor psychological health. Anxiety, depression, dissatisfaction with one's present life, experienced strain, negative self-esteem, hopelessness regarding the future and other negative emotional states are the common result of joblessness. There is also an emerging consensus that the physical, as well as mental health of jobless people is also generally lower than that of employed people.

There are number of options available for jobless people like self employment. Loosing the courage and the enthusiasm to fight with the world is not a manly way, but conquering the world by will power is the factor that make one man. Joblessness is a problem faced by millions but it doesn't mean that they are not living happily. Joblessness is not hopelessness but an opportunity to look at life from a different angle, may be from a more prosperous and successful angle.
