Throughout the latter part of 2008 and the whole of 2009 there was one thing that dominated headlines… the stupid, stupid, idiot face Recession.
Now there is no point in going into all the negatives about the worst global economic crisis of our generation. Instead let’s use this time to take a positive approach and celebrate the fact that, technically, it’s over!
According to economists, we are not in a recession any more… so we can now talk about it in past tense and rejoice in the fact that it is on its way out!
If you were a young person in the recession it pretty much sucked, jobs were at a premium and, unless you had some kind of work experience, even getting an interview was tough work. Well now that the recession is over we should start to see this reversing, companies should start being more confident and recruit staff as per normal!
Now, we’re not saying that 2010 is going to be full of sunshine, rainbows and limitless opportunities but it is highly unlikely that the economy is going to go back to the way it was in the dark days 2009. It will be a slow process but those out there who have had their career blighted should start to see some light at the end of the bleak economic tunnel.
To finish off here is one of the only positive things that came out of the recession… photos! These iconic images from last year’s London riots will be looked back on for many years to come…. when we look back on the Recession as the good ol’ days!
