It's ironic how people work so hard everyday,thinking they own a job when actually the job owns them. Many people go through life living in quiet desperation agonizing over the nature of their jobs - how bad it sucks! Unfortunately many of them do nothing about it and in the end get to accept the circumstances surrounding them. It has been said times without number that the "Rich are getting richer and the Poor getting poorer". This has become an issue of concern in the shrinking economy today.
Why is that so??? Why are the Rich getting richer?
There's no doubting the poor and middle class work harder than the Rich guys but unfortunately their pockets are not working hard for them. The Rich do not work hard,but smart.

They build a system which operates with or without their presence or effort and employ smart guys to work for them. Under normal circumstance, a fresh college graduate is happy picking a job, but unknowingly to him ,he is falling into a trap. I call it "time-for-money-trap". It sounds ironic but it's the truth.. When one picks up a job,he's saying to the boss take control of my life and give me Money. The BOSS (BUSY OVER SOMEONE SUCCESS) gladly accepts and take in the guy as his employee. He agrees to give him money and takes away the most important things in anybody's life ,which are.
1. Time: According to Arnold Bennett, "the greatest asset of a man is his time". This is what employees give to their boss. The boss dictates when you are to come to work,when you are to leave. This is usually the hours of 8a.m to 4p.m,the most important time of our lives,when we can do transaction with any living company. Usually from 4pm to 6p.m,everyone is retiring home after the day's activities,tired and exhausted. People trapped in this race called the" Rat race" go through much torture everyday. They willingly give their eight hours to their boss who uses a system of leverage on them and give them salary.
2. Freedom: people who work under a boss,are never in control of their destiny. They do not have financial freedom, they work almost all their lives and in the end retire into poverty depending on the government or their family for survival. When you are working under a boss,you can take a French leave, no holidays for you unless the boss grants you. You can be posted to another branch ,state or location different from where your family resides. Your holidays are determined by your boss because he controls you by controlling your paycheck.
3. Choice: the choice of the kind of house you will live in, the car you will drive, the kind of clothes you wear and the lifestyle your family lives is determined by the amount of money you earn which is controlled by the boss. With the dwindling economy, high cost of living and increasing inflation, surviving has posed serious challenges to people. Paychecks no longer counts,the salary (Something Always Low And Reduces You) which comes in at the end of the month goes out as quick as a flash. Most times through necessary expenses food like food, clothing, water, transport and some other meagre expenses. This force most people to settle for less than they actually need,take a less deserving lifestyle trying to live on less wage.
This is terrible, the only way to solve this is to own a business. I hope this helps ...please follow me on Twitter @pkjacks, Facebook Steve Pkjacks Ndubuisi, bbm 561C421C. Please share with friends, you'll learn succeed, click to learn how to sack your boss
