Recession, Recession, Recession ???????

Recession

Here we go again, another recession. I think I have gone through three of them. As a child in the ‘50s, I have a faint recollection of Christmas time and my father being unemployed. He was a qualified chef and had worked in the best hotels in Dublin.
But in a recession qualifications means nothing. He was made redundant. For me it was great to have my dad at home, but being a kid I had no idea what it all meant.
Christmas came and Father Christmas delivered my present. It was a second hand Mecano Set. I was lucky not like some other kids, who received nothing. I wondered for years afterward, why Santa didn’t delivered a new one. Eventually my dad returned to work and we were back to normal.
The next two recessions were, for me, was not as bad. I had a good job in a semi-state company and had no worries through these recessions. I am retired now and will deal with any problems that confront us from now on. Let’s see what the budget will have for us all in December.
