Betty! I ❤️ you!
I work in an internal strategy group at Deloitte in the part of our business we refer to as “enabling areas”. We “borrow” people all the time from Deloitte’s Consulting practice (e.g., on short or longer term rotations paying an internal hourly rate to Consulting) to support our internal strategy projects, and I know other internal teams do this too. Do the internal teams do this at PwC? Hubby is on the bench at Strategy& and I keep telling him to look into this as an option…

Same thing happened to me - dumped by my almost fiancé, laid off from the start up I worked at, and then went through major medical problems. You will make it through! I promise. It was the longest year of my life but I ended up where I needed to be. As will you. Sending hugs.
*hugs* that is brutal my friend. Nothing I can say will make it immediately better. I will give you my thoughts - what I found over my 35 years is the closed doors and the broken relationships in my life have been some of the best turning points and most life defining moments. What you see as failure now is in fact opportunity. And there is a huge rush in pulling yourself out of the hole you are in and making a come back!! You got this Op! Drinks on me ;)
Sounds like a hallmark card but I swear it's true.
Sorry to hear. Just remember that when one door closes, another opens.
When it rains, it pours. How headstrong you stay will define your success! Everything happens for a reason
Stay positive, but more importantly stay strong.
You got this far in life coz you did something really well. Things will definitely turn around well, when the time is right. All the best! And let us know how we can help:)
I was just broken up with too. If you need somebody to talk to, let me know.. happy to create a burner.
Be strong!
Hang in there! It will only go north from here
More hugs
You are all awesome!! Thank you!!
Also seriously one of my fired colleagues has been traveling for three months and instagramming like crazy. She looks happier and more radiant.
Sooooo you're single then?
OP- That totally sucks. You deserve a couple of weeks on a beach somewhere before you start your next job. Let yourself have that breakdown -you've earned it.
Keep your head up and a positive attitude and you'll find something good in short order
The good news is it can only get better. I'm happier post Deloitte than ever before.
Hugs
What group OP? Can try to help!
Someone who isn't genius how do I respond to individual post? Or is it not possible?
