I was made redundant a few months ago (UK) after 11 years working for the same company in various roles. I was told there may be a new BA role up but I was unsuitable for redeployment due to it being more "strategic". The jobrole is now up on recruitment websites and it is exactly the same as what I did, minus system support and product owner. So really, it is LESS than I did. Absolutely fuming, especially as I am still looking for work and sending off so many applications.

I feel your pain on this one. I was laid off last year on my favorite holiday. Was the top recruiter at the time. The company wasn’t doing so good and they decided that I cost too much and laid me off. I managed to find something in 2 months and started doing other things on the side to make more income. I am grateful to have worked at that company because I am able to have better opportunities now. At the end of the day, it’s business when it comes to these companies. Start and end in kindness and move forward. 🫂

Interesting. Let’s see if the uptick In cases continues to drive an uptick in hospitalizations and then in fatalities. Depends on how many of the cases are incidental or in very young people not prone to severe cases. But either way, look at the hospital capacity utilization figures! This is the untold story. Were we bending the curve to avoid unnecessary deaths due to overcrowded hospitals, or were we bending the curve to buy time for treatments and vaccine, or just to slow fatalities?
