Listeners respond: job security in the face of unemployment numbers

The World

Monthly unemployment numbers come out later this morning and economists are expecting to see losses for July. Job security is on the minds of many of our listeners and we asked you to weigh in.

A Takeaway listener in New Jersey reached us via text message to say:

“For the first time in a long time, I have decent job security. I work for a community bank. I don’t make a lot of money and I think I provide a lot of value to my organization.”
