Burden of unemployment
An unemployed person knows best how much burdensome life can be. This stage of life begins at the end of one's institutional education. Guardians tend to expect these boys or girls to stand on their own. They seem to be reluctant to bear his expenses any more. The unemployed person starts running after a job which hardly comes within his reach. He offers his toil, sweat even blood in pursuit of this. He finds himself in more difficulty when he has to pay Tk 200--300 or even 500 or more as pay order/bank draft/invoice/postal order per application, especially for the govt. jobs along with other hard-to-manage documents. Sometimes it is felt that he has to be involved in another job to collect this money. Because of these shortcomings, the helpless job aspirants miss some good offers and thus fail to appear at the interview though he might have qualified for the post.
My solemn request to the authorities concerned is: please pay attention to this point and make our burden somewhat lighter demanding less money in the form of bank draft, pay order etc.
