Yes I agree, when you are laid off is the best time to learn a new skill. There is usually a lot of funding for these type classes. You have to be careful though, to not get into a field that is too difficult, intolerable, or just not enjoyable.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a good plan, and seems like a good job from what I've seen while visiting doctor's offices.
ReplyDeletethat's true, when we are laid off, it is not the end of the line, we can always enrich ourselves with new skills.
ReplyDeleteThey say the medical field is a recession proof job. That would probably be an excellent plan to get some training in that area.
