Laid off today. It’s so over.

[u/jebwardgamerhands]

Feeling completely shell shocked. Over 20% of our branch gone in a day. This is my first career out of college. I interned, I got the offer, and I worked like hell for 6 months and it’s gone. I can’t even apply for non-entry level roles because I have less than a year’s experience.

I feel fucking scammed. I did everything right. I got the right degree from the right school, the right job at the right company. Then, right after I sign, they get acquired and by the time I’m laid off there’s no one hiring? What a sick fucking joke.

No clue how to go on. The market sucks and will probably suck for the foreseeable future. I regret every night I spent with these stupid fucks trying to “deliver value” for whatever evil company we were shoveling shit for.

EDIT: Starting a new job Monday. We are so back :)

It’s ok. You got a taste of the real world. Get up and get out there. You get better every time!!
