Today I’ve been in bed. Guess I feel kind of depressed about this.

I thought my company was relatively ok and safe from possible layoffs.

It’s also quite the drastic change- to go from working with my colleagues every day for two years to suddenly being told you’re being let go and there’s no chance for goodbyes.

I texted a few co workers to say farewell last night. The only other female on my team was sad to see me go. She and I really got along. A female director offered me her reference, which was nice.

And my CEO said he can introduce me to some people for potential employment.

I know I wasn’t happy working there but it still stings. You work hard for a company, and it’s like a slap in the face.

I put on a good front when HR and the CEO told me they were letting me go. I remained very professional. I still wanted certain work I had done to be sent to my clients to wrap up. Even while being laid off I wanted to finish my work. Crazy.

I don’t know. It sucks, bottom line. So today I’m indulging and am staying in bed.
