They are talking layoffs at work. Realistically, I have very little to worry about. But it's still scary and stressful.
Yeah that is a scary thing.
It is very scary and stressful!
I have nearly a year of expenses in savings. And a layoff would qualify for unemployment. So, financially, I'd be good for a while. Its more that I really like my job and my company, I don't want to have to leave it.
I just went through this. My employer was bought by a larger company, and wound up with 150 people for 119 sales positions.
The cuts were made about a month ago. (I'm happily still employed. So are most of the people I care about.)
