It doesn’t have a stigma anymore. Just be honest about it

In this job market, sure. But I would frame it in a way that explains my job was eliminated due to a restructure. That way, it makes it clear the decision was about the role no longer being required and not about me and my performance.

Goodluck!!!

Lay offs are pretty common especially recently. I’d be honest and like someone mentioned, restructure is a key word.

I seem to go through this cycle where I'll try to fix a problem, fix it and then go back to my old ways. I'm trying to fight against it but basically my performance review is coming up and I think it's likely I'm going to be let go because of my failure to meet expectations. Earlier in the year I was going through a rough time and working through it, I have gotten better over the course of the year but I feel it's not enough. I got fired from my last job. I'm so sick of this cycle

If you miss the ‘Golden Age’ of television, I highly recommend tuning into Sean, Laura, and Tucker on FOX.

Thought - In the Georgia runoff elections, the best use of Democrat money would be to run ads which seem to have a conservative bent and play up the election fraud conspiracies, claiming the election system is broken and can’t be trusted.
