Well, I just got laid off. I’m at peace with this and open for new beginnings. I’ve been saving like crazy and I have almost 2 years of savings in the bank. After many years in the marketing industry I’m thinking of going to Med School and starting a career change. The marketing industry is a mess right with zero job stability and I think it’s time for a change. God Speed everyone.
