Lets talk reality…the layoffs are real, its coming, and so should be our mental preparedness for this. As an employee, i enjoyed the perks and benefits. i worked for this company under their assigned leadership and definitely tried to deliver on my tasks to my capability. corporates reduce headcount all the time and i need to be mentally strong and prepared
if i were to be let go next week, due to whatever reasons chosen, i need support from my fellow coworkers, my leaders and employer that its only a job loss and not a crime or walk of shame. on the flip side, if i survived and had to see any coworker let go, it is painful too
being compassionate about this situation is the best we can do to help us all move on with our lives. easier said than done, but let try to stay calm, friday is here, enjoy some coffee time together or get out for lunch with your coworkers or better yet a drink to toast the good times. lets not lose ourselves, our confidence and what we are capable of and made of. for all we know, this change of weather might do more good than harm in the very near future. good luck to us all
