laid off

today, 5 people in our company got laid off, including me.

the latest investor round didn't go well, so they got rid of everyone that isn't crucial to the company (basically anyone not sales or development). it sucks. i'm angry. but it's for the better i guess because i didn't like working there anyway. i wanted to quit a bunch of times, but i was too stubborn to do it.

so...now i have tons of time on my hands. lovely, jobless in seattle, again.

i just wish they'd given some notice.

That sucks. Maybe you're just not cut out for the corporate world. It's time you move on and become a pro cyclist.

Tough luck. Sometimes it's not always about how hard you work or about you, it's just the way it goes. You'll find something, and you're young, so you'll be okay.
