How can we help each other with job challenges?

Time:Set the timer to 60 minutes for the Learn section.

Read:Some of us may have jobs and some may still be looking for jobs, but everyone faces challenges with work. Some examples are:

  • I still haven’t found a job.

  • My boss never seems happy with my work.

  • I have a job, but I don’t make enough money.

  • I don’t know how to deal with corruption at my work.

  • I talk to a lot of people, but nobody will hire me.

  • It’s difficult to be honest with my employer.

  • I don’t like my co-workers.

  • I can’t keep a job.

We become more self-reliant as we counsel together and practice overcoming challenges.

Practice:Each member of the group will write his or her biggest job challenge on the board. As a group, choose three of the challenges on the board. Your practice today is to discuss and plan some solutions.

Reviewing past practices, discussions, and videos in this workbook can be helpful. You might also know someone outside the group that could help with a challenge. This person could be invited to help in your next group meeting.
