Title: 2G2D: It almost got me!
Post by: Akala on March 30, 2009, 08:13:21 PM
My office laid off around half of our employees this morning. Today was terrible. I'm safe, but we're now on a skeleton crew and my workload will pretty much double. They took my helper.  :punch


I think this is the first time I've been in a position to know beforehand that half of the people I have seen on a daily basis for years only have a few days left. It really messed with me. This past weekend was pretty drunk.

I'm happy to still be employed (especially in the current environment), but man, today killed me.

I wonder if HR people feel like this all the time...

Now is a terrible time to be laid off. HOWEVER... now is probably the perfect time to get fired.

"Why did you leave your past employment?"
"Well, you know, 2G2D..."

Purely theoretical, of course. I don't suggest trying it at home.
