Salar Davari · Answer

@bogomep Actually, I think there is no job security anywhere. It's not something you're given. It's something you make.

Answer

Job security exists only if you are not expendable, which only happens if you hold extreme trade secrets ot have blackmail level dirt on management. None of these are ideal for health. Best  approach to having the peace of mind at work would be to have excellent adaptive mindset and constany learning along with a second hustle that is growing in imcome and traction.  Eat rice and bean until yiu have at least one year worth of expenses saved and you will stand tall and be the beat at whatever you do!
