I got laid off on 8 February. The signs were there. We had all been worried for quite some time. Hours had been cut, responsibilities had been re-assigned, titles had been moved around... all the things the news, articles and websites told me were WARNING signals that lay-offs were about to happen were in effect.
So what did I do?
I hid my head in the sand.
Lots of things went through my mind:
"I can't get another job."
"This is the only thing I know how to do"
"I have no other skills"
"Writing a resume is hard work"
"I won't be the one to get let go"
The next bunch of entries will tell you how I figured this out.
I am excited to share. I hope you will comment and offer up your experiences.
Happy reading.Post Options
I was wrong on all accounts.
