Fallout from the Workforce: Living in a post-career world and the people who teach us

Fallout from the Workforce: Living in a post-career world and the people who teach us

Marcella Van Oel
0/5 ( ratings)
Fallout from the Workforce discusses the many ways in which an unstable work life spearheads the transformation of adult lives. It weaves the author’s story with others finding ways to prevail over devastating circumstances.
Fallout from the workforce is part spiritual journey, part social commentary. It is a chronicle of personal observations, interviews, and wisdom gathered from contemporary philosophers and psychologists. It critiques the advice givers of the job search industry and champions the contributions of those who capture the significance of issues affecting the lives of the long-term unemployed.
The author sets out to discover what remains after the nomadic life of contract work continually separates her from work. After years spent in the unrootedness of the contingent workforce, rather than leading to a new career, they left her part of the long-term unemployed. This book is a series of essays from a very inquisitive mind wishing to understand how the very mechanisms of employment have failed to utilize the best efforts of millions of people. Work, how we engage with it, how we attach ourselves to the intricate relationships it demands from us, will never be the same.
