Keep your head up

You sort of have to view this layoff as a blessing

Do you really want to stick around and pick up the slack of all the extra work that is suddenly about to appear and not get compensated any differently for it? You don't just eliminate 1/3 of your salaried workforce and everything goes on as normal... — read more

Does my manager know?

She’s avoiding me, avoiding eye contact, in general she behaves in a very awkward way. Does she know who will get the axe? It seems to me that something is going on… I am in Warren.
