Comments on: Employees – Disloyal or Simply Adjusting to a New Status Quo? http://tusharkumar.com/2008/07/23/employees-disloyal-or-simply-adjusting-to-a-new-status-quo/ Tushar's Experiences and Insights Tue, 22 Nov 2011 00:04:47 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: nikhilarora http://tusharkumar.com/2008/07/23/employees-disloyal-or-simply-adjusting-to-a-new-status-quo/#comment-10 Wed, 23 Jul 2008 23:31:47 +0000 http://tusharkumar.wordpress.com/?p=17#comment-10 my two cents on this: I also think a part of our jumpiness has to do with the simple explosion of technology, specifically that related to recruitment. I know prior, in our parents generation, a lot of recruiting was simply done through word of mouth or people you know. Headhunters would seek you out and try to connect a potential employee and employer. That system put a lot less control into the employees’ hands. Now, with caljobs, monster.com, etc. there are countless ways for us to seek out and connect to new employment possibilities – which I definitely feels caters to jumpiness. Now we can move around whenever we are dissatisfied, rather than waiting around for someone to come to us.

However, I’ve also heard the theory that its emblematic of our enduring quest for “perfection” or total happiness. That if this job doesn’t cut it, then the next well. It’s almost endemic in all parts of our lives, if this marriage won’t work out, well the next one might be our “soul- mate.”

However, with the way things are going, if I get a job after I graduate that pays rent, I’ll be thrilled.
