worked like a slave for this company, doing their daily sales postings and taking care of our side company's accounting (AR/AP), I got called in and wrongfully terminated, effective IMMEDIATELY. left feeling completely dumbfounded because there weren't any signs leading up to this. their reason being "organizational restructuring" which is legal but incredibly sh*tty. i was one of the 3 key people running our accounting department, and this came out of nowhere. i'm just speechless.

Why were you terminated? I am so sorry to hear that. That is so crappy. I would definitely start looking for something else sooner rather than later because the job market sucks right now.

I’ve been interviewing for new positions to leave PA.

I don’t think my boss has any idea I’m looking to leave - anything I should do to not feel guilty about potentially leaving them short staffed with a ton of work? Is this something you think about when looking to leave?

I am stuck in IR purgatory. I hate IR. I started off my career ten years ago as a deal guy. Then my firm asked me to shoulder IR responsibilities as well.
