The company I work for has been losing money and yesterday afternoon we had layoffs. The details are, of course, extra secret and confidential and I’ll probably be executed for even mentioning it on here but I am fresh out of fucks to give. One of my friends was let go. Naturally I disagree with that but not just because he is a friend. However, as my manager said, none of it was for cause and they dismissed people they would rather not have.
I still have a job but I have to admit that’s cold comfort. It’s not been an especially good few weeks. We all knew something had to give and that something like this was probably going to happen. There is some other personal stuff I’ve been trying to deal with and Whitney’s dad passed away last week so I went to the memorial service on Saturday.
It feels sort of liminal. Like being weightless but you don’t know if you’re floating or falling. I’ve been through this before a few times and I’ve never seen it get better. I suppose it must be possible but I don’t know how to distinguish the two cases.
I guess that’s it.
