What’s a parachute plan? Two different things. It’s a plan to help you escape from a job that you don’t love, that doesn’t pay you what you want to be making, or doesn’t fulfill your needs in terms of the career you’ve always wanted. It’s also a plan for those of you who are happily enjoying life in your dream job. In the same way that we should all have wills in place should the worst happen, a Parachute Plan is something useful to have at the ready, just in case things take an unexpected turn with our employment.
Parachute Plan is a site dedicated to providing you with a plan to escape from your current job and land safely in some new form of employment. Parachute Plan is also dedicated to helping people who are fully satisfied with their current jobs to put together a plan to prepare for possible unexpected changes in their employment status.
Many people stick with jobs they hate until it either feels like it’s too late or it is too late. They either convince themselves that their current job is the only job they can do, they are let go from their job, or they end up quitting their job in frustration without having a solid plan in place to ease the transition to a new form of employment.
The goal of Parachute Plan is to help you build a solid plan to help you be prepared for or weather a time of unemployment.
The content on this site is also intended to be the rough notes for a book version of Parachute Plan.
