I'm sick of being laidoff. Got laid off again today, second time in 4 years in a big corporate layoff. Seems I can't ever find any respite these days. No matter how hard I work or how much I put in, just bound to be laid off and even though I've been recognized officially through merit repeatedly, these companies here in the USA just keep laying people off And then passing all the jobs on to India for 3K a year salary....

So disheartening. At this rate I might as well just retire from White collar work and go and learn a trade as a tradesman, completely redo my entire life goals

Thanks for sharing your experience. Even if it seems insignificant, I know it must've been so hard to go through. That trauma is understandable and makes you human. I appreciate you sharing it.

I've thought about going into management too. I have 5 years in my industry. I could be manager next. But I've never been trained. Idk how to lead. Idk how to report progress, manage projects, delegate, answer questions I don't have the answers to. Lie to my employees and subordinates as to why they're average even if they're exceptional. Meets expectations, everyone gets that. So many new challenges id have to face I'm nervous about.

But then again I could just get laid off again after landing a manager job. Who knows? It's terrifying thinking about moving up
