You are right. It's a very changing employment market with most departments in offices understaffed by 2 or 3 people, and the one who isn't there and doesn't deliver is the one who is history. I noticed the changes during the last two decades that I was employed , so many companies seem to have a "gotcha" mentality, along with shrinking benefits.
At one time I thought if I had finished college and had a degree it would be easier, but now my sons, both with business degrees, are seeing it get tougher, even in the corporate world.
Work is for the fit, and only the strong survive.
I am not a negative person, but I am realistic.
