Layoffs are common in the midst of long strikes. Once it actually gets to a strike, it's already been a long and drawn out process.

The last time I felt confident in my positon, I was laid off two weeks before Christmas, so I refuse to let myself feel safe at any job.

Nope I'm currently laid off

Haven't been confident since shortly after I took the job. It's just the way modern society works today.

I was just laid off this week from my job. Totally came out of left field. But the job market is strong???? How can this be?

Yep

It did, it reminds a little creative certain things.

Pretty much. I think it’s It's easy to advocate for high taxes when you don't have any money, so it won't be your money getting taken away.

I imagine stranding two astronauts in the space station and having to rely on their biggest competitor to get them back didn't do any good for their bottom line.

I have a 25K loan from my MBA. I paid off 100k whole, after graduation. 3 years ago, I moved my loan from federal to private ( SOFI) account. I recently lost my job. I have applied for unemployment, as the severance that I received will only cover for 2 months. Together my husband and I used to make less than 250k after tax. Now, with a loss of pay , we are going to make less. Do you think I will be eligible for Loan forgiveness?

A friend was told their firm will cut ties EOY if certain things don’t improve. Friend had planned to quit in the next year anyway (to start their own business), so there is no real incentive to bend over backwards. Friend’s goal is to keep the income for a little longer, but to minimize conflict / headaches. What’s the best move here? Wait until EOY and take the severance? Give 6 / 9 / 12 months’ notice now? Is there such a thing as too much notice? Could too much notice backfire?

Follow up post to my last post…My husband was laid off from the company where I also work. I am feeling really isolated / depressed about working and moving forward. I’m also getting to a stage where I’m really sad that people haven’t reached out to either my husband or myself to send well wishes or provide support. It’s like they don’t know what to say or I make them feel awkward so they don’t bother…I’m trying to focus on a few that have been supportive but it’s hard…Any words of advice? 😞
