Answer 1

George's practical nature and past experiences indicate he is not optimistic about the duration of his new job in "Of Mice and Men." He consistently mentions the transient nature of their work and the challenges they face in keeping a job for an extended period. Additionally, George's relationship with Lennie, who unwittingly jeopardizes their job prospects, contributes to his pessimism about their future stability.
