I thought I would fall off a cliff when it happened, but instead I’ve never felt so unburdened. It wasn’t just the relief after all that anticipation, but also realizing how much I actually hated my job and how completely I had lost perspective on what matters while constantly being on edge in a small, toxic team. I just hope I don’t reach a point a year from now where I feel awful and am still jobless.

I'm sure they were as excited to get rid of you and your attitude. Good luck you will have a reality check when the money stops coming in.
@OP wonderful that you feel unburdened. Don’t mind the other people. Their reality is work and they can’t do anything else creative without said work
@OP wait till reality sets in!!!!
@OP this is exactly how I felt when I took the vsp in 2018. I hope the job market gets better in the new year
@av is a troll who gets their rocks off wasting other people's time. The article they are directing you to is AI generated slop. There is nothing there worth the time burnt reading it.
You've been warned.
Have a great time when you are jobless
Yep, no more worthless PowerPoints and Fire drills.
I'm number 10! I'm number 10!
@af HR can't do anything like that. Get a life already and maybe you can hang out with us and work from home and if you're real nice you can attend our barbecue
@OP - I've been in similar circumstances where I was burnt out from work and needed to recharge. Remember it will take time for you to build momentum with your job search, which you can use to recover, so I'd get started as soon as possible.
Here's some helpful advice to get you going.

@ag you sound like an uneducated fool who cant work anywhere but telecom. keep sniffing butts
Wait until you need to find a new job and no one is hiring from telecom. There are no jobs in telecom any longer.
@a9 HR should investigate all the leaders collecting paychecks yet impede work and also violate the RTO policy. you must be one of them
WOW, HR's all over this thread.
LIFE IS GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Working out good for me. Luckily, I am close to meficare as insurance is crazy $$$.
great post OP. I was in the exact same situation, and I never felt better. Keep improving yourself during your time off wherever you need and you’ll find employment
How's that working out for you?
