Got a weird meeting request from creative manager and HR entitled “team rating mini master.” No clue what that means, but in a sea of recent layoffs/ 45 day notices, I’m expecting the worst. Thoughts?

If it starts to get weird. Tell them you’re letting them go. Keep us posted.

Sounds like they are asking you - as CD-to help evaluate (rate) the remaining team. But agree with SC1- ask how you can prep so you don’t dread the meeting between now and when you find out

I hope they’ve not nicknamed you the mini master. You could always just go ask them “in case you need to prepare anything”.

If it’s a layoff meeting - you getting the axe or the axing of others with your inputs, just ask a question or make a statement to the meeting owner that will surefire let you know the gist.

I’m quitting my job tomorrow morning. I don’t have a new job lined up. I’m scared, but also excited? I’ve felt under utilized for months, and haven’t had a promotion after two years. I never take risks like this, but life is too short. Is this a bad choice?

After 6 years of temporary contracts and unstable situations, I find my dream job in my dream company. All of a sudden the world goes upside down and I get laid off.
