What good things happened after you were laid off?
Layoffs are bad I know, but there's always a silver lining Now since that's in the past, we can ponder what was good
Started own tech business with a friend. I'm doing this full time. Revenue hasnt reached my past salary level. But I enjoy the real ownership of revenues, costs and everything around it. A new chapter opened in my life. I hope I find enough business to continue this new life. Thanks to the layoff.
Happened to me when I joined my first company as a fresher.
1. Failed internal training and got laid off.
2. Everyone in the company mocked me, laughed at me, made fun of me, took advantage of my misery.
3. My girl left me.
4. I was shattered as if I lost my ground off my feet.
5. I studied, prepared myself, cracked 4 consecutive companies and took the worst decision of joining TCS.
6. My learning and earning went backwards.
7. Again I studied and upskilled myself, got certified, switched with a good package and doing good work.
8. Most importantly, I AM HAPPY.
To all who are reading this, never lose hope even if everything is against you. Everything good happens to people as per their time. Have faith, stay honest to yourself and keep hustling. Cheers to all 🙏
I forgot to add something very important... The only people who stayed and supported me through all those difficult times was my FAMILY. Remember they are the only true people you have as your well wisher and I'm forever grateful to them.
Spend every moment with them, value them, love them and cherish them, because they won't be forever around, spend every little time with them as if it was their last moment spending with you.
Life gets a new meaning after layoff! Great learning
All the best to you 🙌
