Fears About Job Changes are Natural

There is nothing that can be more unsettling in the workplace than looming changes. Especially if it is rumored to be big. It’s understandable. We have gotten to see this up close and personal in the Federal Government recently. Big changes can have big ramifications and in today’s world that could mean being laid off, forced to relocate, or ending up doing something that may not be as fulfilling as what you are doing now.

Lately it seems that anxiety is on the rise for one reason or another. Or maybe it’s always just there. We are all dealing with something. Ever get “white coat syndrome” at the doctors when your blood pressure goes up because you don’t like being there? Maybe you didn’t get the job you wanted or you are burnt out at work. Or, if you are a federal employee like me, there is a real possibility of losing our jobs right now.
