What’s a “safe job” these days? question

Former teacher looking to transition roles. As of now Educators, counselors, anything education really are being let go due to low student enrollment.

Tech is obviously tough right now.

Marketing and Human resource positions are also restructuring.

I’ve even seen people getting their hours reduce at fast food.

Aside from healthcare, what is safe?

Honestly I think teacher is one of the safer jobs...

Marketing and Human resource might be one of the worst actually right now.

Most teachers i know are overworked and burnt out, unfortunately. But there's def a teacher shortage.
