Laid off, embaressed and sad
Got impacted in the layoff at Sharechat today after working 4+years here. Got the news an hour back and have not shared this with anyone in my family yet.
I am sad and have to share this news with my fiancee and in-laws today. Tell them why I have to cancel vacation plans and look out for a job instead.
I am into an arranged married and my in-laws are very conservative and don't understand tech work culture, I don't know how they will take the news of a layoff.
I'm anticipating they will be shocked, her asshole brother-in-law will even make fun of me.
To make it worse the fault is mine for believing I won't be laid off when my company was not doing well. I thought it would not happen to me and never looked out in advance.
Fuck 2023. What a shit show Christmas.
