Sure, once you've been laid off you realize that a lot of things you did that went above and beyond really counted for nothing. In the end, we are all just entries on a spreadsheet and that's about it. I have conflicted feelings, as I feel like it's ethically important to do a good job. But, I also realize it's just unrealistic to think that will be rewarded.

That is the sad truth. I think most of us believe we are in our positions based on merit, but when the time comes for corporations to save money, we really are just numbers.
I could not agree with this more. Ever since I was laid off I realized that I was working tons of overtime and pulling late nights to work hard and be seen. In the end it doesn't really matter because they will still lay you off. There is no use burning yourself out.
Yes! My perspective has changed a lot since I was laid off. Overworking really didn’t get me that far when I look back, did make me realize the value in it, if I’m doing it for myself. Used to work like it was my own business I was benefitting, and the truth is it wasn’t worth it.

I can totally relate to that! There really are so many workers like us who give 110% in their work, and would benefit so much if we just gave that effort to ourselves!
