One of our laid off #union members created this #comic, reporting their experience yesterday. It is a bittersweet but amazing wrap up of what many have experienced.

Week-long management meetings? Some directors included, others not? A lot of hush hush conversations? I smell a reorg and layoff! Do you smell it?

Boosts appreciated!

Welp, part of some layoffs today :c Final day of employment is Aug 31, so not the end of the world. On top of that, got another month and some weeks of severance pay. Very fortunate to have that, despite the news of the layoff. Also fortunate to be a software engineer and finding another job with better pay is a lot easier than most others.

Just unfortunate, it was a pretty sweet gig. On to the next!

PS: Anyone looking for a web dev with 8+ years of experience (primarily front-end with, some back-end), hit me up!

I've been loving #Elixir and #Phoenix #LiveView lately -- would love to find a #remote job doing that if one were available :) I've also been doing React.js forever professionally and that's what this past job was primarily in, and a simple Phoenix LiveView service I got up and running for some internal forms.

A Year Ago - it was 14 years ago now that I was laid off from #Nortel. At the time traumatic, upsetting and worrisome. Looking back it was a good thing.

Anheuser-Busch has some news
Bud Light lost its sales records to booze
Now staff they must shed
Password for the bed
As they lay off employees, it's a snooze

A quotation from Rogers, Will:

«««««
Machines are a great thing, but if one replaces a hundred men, it don’t buy anything, it don’t eat anything, while the hundred men spend theirs back for food, shelter, and hundreds of various commodities for them and their families.

3 weeks (120 working hours) left until my #layoff exit. I have one more thing that I want to ship and it made it to integration testing on Friday. It's been 5 months since the layoff notice and yup I still haven't felt like updating my resume yet. Fixing up some image processing tonight for #HomeAssistant then finishing setting up a herb garden bed tomorrow.
