What is in store for your non profit in the next 5-10 years? Would your prediction be different if the election outcome would have been different? I hate to say this, but I am worried that our next 5-10 years will be full of changes and layoffs.

I work with the immigrant population and am positive there is a layoff in my future. I'm not sure what jobs exactly to look for that won't be as affected by potential market and political upheaval.

That's a really good question! I haven't thought too much about how the election might affect us. But I do have concerns that more chaos in the world could create any number of problems. When people are just worried in general it's hard to make a connection with them, and it's especially hard on fundraising. But, as always, the future is unknown and you have to prepare for turbulence but hope for the best.

I’ve been on the bench with J1 for about 3 months. I was worried that because I couldn’t find another project, I would get laid off so I found J2, which pays more, is very meeting heavy, but I really like. I’ve kept J1 because I’m still on the bench doing absolutely nothing and getting paid. Thinking about looking for a role on a project with J1 that’s not along my career path but will allow for me to do work with no calls so that I can manage both jobs. Does anyone have experience or advice?

Follow up post to my last post…My husband was laid off from the company where I also work. I am feeling really isolated / depressed about working and moving forward. I’m also getting to a stage where I’m really sad that people haven’t reached out to either my husband or myself to send well wishes or provide support. It’s like they don’t know what to say or I make them feel awkward so they don’t bother…I’m trying to focus on a few that have been supportive but it’s hard…Any words of advice? 😞
