- 3. Myth No. 1 We should work in the job of your dreams Employment projections data for broadcast and sound engineering technicians, 2010-20 indicate: Competition for jobs will be strong. This occupation attracts many applicants who are interested in working with the latest technology and electronic equipment. Many applicants also are attracted to working in the radio and television industry. Those looking for work in this industry will have the most job opportunities in smaller markets or stations. Those with hands-on experience with electronics or with work experience at a radio or television station will have the best job prospects. In addition, technicians are expected to be versatile and contribute to the set up, operation, and maintenance of equipment, whereas previously technicians typically specialized in one area.

Editor's Notes
- ย Hook:Story about unemployed people turning jobs down or quitting their jobs in a struggling economy.
- โขThe Big Idea: โHow to fall in love with your job (even if itโs not for you) can lead to financial security and personal rewards.
- โขWhatโs in it for your audience? Explain why your topic is important or worth discussing. Why is it for you? The number of unemployed individuals due to underemployment or other is rising. In the Commissioner's Statement on The Employment Situation, Erica Groshen, Commissioner, reported on July 5, 2013: Among persons who were neither working nor looking for work in June, 2.6 million were classified as marginally attached to the labor force, about the same as a year earlier. These individuals had not looked for work in the 4 weeks prior to the survey but wanted a job, were available for work, and had looked for a job within the last 12 months. The number of discouraged workers, a subset of the marginally attached who believed that no jobs were available for them, was 1.0 million in June, up from 821,000 a year earlier.
- โขWhy should your audience listen to you? Explain your ethos (credibility). My audience should listen to me because many of my friends and family have been looking for work since they graduated college and have come to a dead end. Some of them have turned down jobs because the salary was low; others because they were overqualified and the jobs offered were not what they wanted to do. My research is on jobless individuals and the problems they encounter when there is no money to make ends meet, and how this situation affects their personal and social lives from losing their homes to divorce to having a negative credit history that further hinders their ability to get a job since most employers will not only check references, but credit histories as well.
- โขCall to Adventure: ย I would like my colleagues, friends, family, and everyone out there who find themselves unemployed or are thinking of quitting their jobs to rethink their decisions of turning down jobs or of leaving their jobs and consider the consequences of doing so. I ask them to make positive decisions to accept the next position offered or to stay in their jobs even if itโs not the job they really want.
- Main Points:By accepting the next offer that comes your way or by staying in your current job:1. 1)ย ย ย ย You will be able to pay or continue to pay your bills
- Main Point2)ย ย ย ย Your credit history will eventually become positive.
- Main Point 3)ย ย ย ย Your personal relationship with your loved ones will improve since there will be less stress on account of money.
- โขSupporting Point One: ย Ability to pay for your home, car, food, and other obligations: A permanent or temporary job will provide the income and the benefits that come with the job to enable you to pay for these most pressing obligations.
- โขSupporting Point Two: ย A permanent or temporary job will enable you to come to terms with your creditors and repair your credit history, which can land you a better job. Lisa Guerin says that while Federal Law authorizes employers to check credit reports some states do not and employers need your authorization to review your credit history. (Guerin 2013) Therefore, it is a good idea to improve your credit history if you are planning to get a better position later.
- โขSupporting Point Three: ย How some family relationships that were torn apart due to unemployment of one of the spouses were made whole again after the spouse accepted a job offer for which he was overqualified.
- โขCall to Action: ย If you are unemployed or thinking of quitting your job, I urge you to accept the next job offer you get or to stay in your current job (until something else develops).
- III. Endย โขSummarize the main points: ย By accepting the next offer that comes your way or by staying in your current job:1)ย ย ย ย You will be able to pay or continue to pay your bills
- 2)ย ย ย ย Your credit history will eventually become positive
- 3)ย ย ย ย Your personal relationship with your loved ones will improve since there will be less stress on account of money.
- Restate Big Idea:Falling in love with your job leads to financial security and rewards
- Clincher/new bliss: ย For all the above reasons, you will be happy that you did accept the next offer or stay in your current job(even if itโs not for you).ย
