Today, every song on the random playlist is a sad one
Today is layoff day at work.
I dodged the bullet but it was very, very close.
They let my supervisor (and at least 12 other people in our office of ~60) go, who has been with the company twice as long as I have.
It doesn’t make any sense, and it’s not fair, but I’m/we’re lucky I guess. I’m happy to have survived, but feel horrible about it too.
Jen said ‘survivor’s guilt’ I think. Very true.
Things are strange around here. Especially in our little 3, now 2 person department. (It was 4 earlier in the year but that’s a completely different story). I’ll miss our spirited debates; we were ideological opposites (or nearly so) but still managed to find some common ground and respect each other and get along very well – not to mention all the enjoyable verbal boxing.
I love you sweetie! I’ll give you a big long hug when you get home.
