Custom Street Pole Banners - Custom Feather Flags


Tuesday, October 20, 2009

If you go back to the sixties and the seventies, most teachers tell my female classmates that they shouldn't worry much about getting good education or should not aspire in highflying careers such as being attorneys or doctors because women need not strive that hard for money. After all, their husbands will take care of them. The advice never worked anyway. As more and more women explore previously made dominated jobs and more and more households today have women as the breadwinners.

Okay, don't wave the pride flags out now women. The men might be envious. The thing is, last 2007, 25.9 % of wives all across America are already earning more than their husbands. This glaring percentage is a 17.8% increase from twenty years ago. Also, with the recent recession (which, by the way, did not provide attention flags for us to be prepared for) a whooping 7 million men had lost their jobs. The jobs which remained are those which belong to the healthcare industry and the education industry, which kept a lot women employed.

Indeed, times have changed. In fact, there are 30% more women who land to jobs faster than men right after graduation. This is not surprising, after all, there have always been more women to finish school than men. We won't be surprised if someday, tables will eventually turn and women will lead the workforce globally.

So, are you ready to report to a female boss? If you're not, start doing so. Because if it still affects your ego, you'll just be part of the unemployed bunch along with the males!
