1. Income. The main reason that people take a survival job
is the income needed to cover at least the most basic of necessities such as
food and shelter.
2. Productivity. While many of us may fantasize about a life
of doing nothing in reality we have a strong work ethic — and even the most
basic survival job makes us feel we are doing our part.
3. Confidence. Being unemployed for any length of time is a
blow to our egos but being back in the workforce may be just the
confidence-booster needed to help find a new job in your field.
4. Respect. Most employers report having respect for
unemployed job-seekers who are willing to work survival jobs as a means to
support their families.
5. Healthcare. If you are one of the lucky ones you may get
healthcare benefits with your survival job so that you and your family do not
go without healthcare on top of everything else.
6. Foot in the Door. If you’re lucky taking a survival job
could be just the break you need to establish a reputation for a when a
position in your field opens with an employer.
