I just got blindsided folks. Manager and some HR lady pull me into a chat room and inform me they are letting me going due to company restructuring :-) I didn't see this coming at all I'm devastated and don't know what the fuck to do. [Reply]

Dust yourself off and find something better.
Yeah it was remote they are based out of MA. Never got a write up for anything, no indications of layoffs, nothing. Just a chat request popped up and boom done. [Reply]

So, do you have to send any shit back to them, or what?
sec [Reply]
This is the exact reason why I never felt the need to give 2 weeks notice. I would just take the work truck home, take all my stuff out and turn in the keys the next morning. I had more than one of those fucks beg me to work until they could replace me. I just asked them if they would have given me the same consideration if they had planned to let me go. None ever said yes.

I’m just saying cash that check and make sure it’s good before you fuck with anything. And think about it before you do.
But fuck them, tm.

That's funny. You never received a box. Just the paycheck. [Reply]

I still have 3 laptops sitting out in my garage from my last 3 jobs. They never sent me the return label. But I keep them in case some day they miss them. [Reply]

It's a hard lesson, but one I learned years ago. Always look out for yourself and nothing but yourself. Loyalty doesn't matter. [Reply]

Fucking massholes were just pissed that you were outta KC and Pat is gonna erase Tom's legacy [Reply]
It's strange companies don't hold your last paycheck or severance, PTO pay out, something until you ship their stuff back... I'd assume if nothing else, they'd want to format the drive, even if they plan on throwing it away. [Reply]
