Like others have said, thank God you are young. That's a blessing that you were given 60 days advance notice. We are entering a phase where we have to build our own source of income and business. There is no safety with corps anymore. I was laid off in early 2023 from my main job and didn't have any back up. I thought I was going to struggle but found a way. You'll find yours.
60 days notice? You have a nice employer. Most of my layoffs have been zero notice. Out the door with a box in hand. You'll be fine. Start interviewing for new roles ASAP. Also get used to more layoffs. With AI and outsourcing, this is the new norm. And Welcome to the real world.
Yep, I was terminated 5pm on a Friday just before the weekend (no warnings whatsoever)..,weeks after a positive performance review…. Didn’t even get severance or my 4 weeks of saved PTO paid out….. just like that. I didn’t do anything wrong….one of the managers for some reason had it out for me. That’s employment in America, employees have few rights. Can get fired for any and no reason at all. I should have at least gotten my paid PTO but legally employers don’t have to do that either. Then they tried to fight my unemployment….which I won.
I knew a guy who worked in IT was given his notice and told to leave instantly but he got 3 months notice fully paid. A disgruntled person in IT can seriously fuck around a company so it helps both parties if the person going goes instantly...it is however a psychological shock though if you've never experienced being laid off
@@charliedallachie3539 this sounds like what happened to me. Got a call at 5:04 pm on a friday to not return monday.. i was in the middle of a project and getting positive feedback for it and from clients throughout my time there. Was there for nearly 7 yrs. No warnings or pips. It was confusing
@@charliedallachie3539 Here in Europe employees are more protected by law compared to the US I guess. In case of a layoff, an employer must pay several month of wages (based on the number of years with the company), to the employee. Immediate termination with no additional payment is only possible when the employee does something really stupid and harsh thing, like e.g. intentional damage to property or business.
@imieeh There are laws in the USA. Nobody follows them, and there are tons of loopholes. If you try to push back after the fact the system is so backed up by the time anyone could do anything at all you will have waisted half a year or a year to get no result.
Completely agree with that. Being in corporate America for 28 years, we've seen so many blindsiding layoffs all the time... even a week before Christmas.
Yep, each of mine have been maybe half day notice if that….you’ll get a random calendar invite with HR and accounts start getting disabled. Thats the sign. No two week notice or anything
I was laid off at the end of March and am now on my fourth week of a new job! I love it and it's a big pay increase as well. My former manager (who hired me and left the company before I was let go) gave me feedback on his resume, introduced me to his connections, and also did a mock interview with me. I think the mock interview really helped me get the job! I only got one interview from a referral, and it wasn't for the job I ended up getting.
@@onenation9510 I actually don't consider myself passionate about the job, and I can't picture myself being passionate about any job really. My passions don't make me any money, and I'm fine with that :) I do love the job though because I like my manager, all the people I've met so far, I prefer working at a large corporation vs a start up, and I'm good at this type of work.
I too got laid off luckily my company gave me 8 months severance package. It was an amazing job doing disbursement and procurement audits for clients. Made so much money for me to buy a few cars, a house and traveling. If only the owner didn’t sell the company to the competition and the Néw company laid everyone off due to everyone making too much money. So they brought in their own people and we had to train them so that we would get our severance package. I still think about the job glad I was part of it for 11 years .
It sounds like you are a math/science person but you also are very articulate, interesting and creative. I have seen many you tubes on people getting laid off and they are bitter and angry and not really that interesting. There was not a boring moment in your video and thank you for not including minutes and minutes of of things that don't matter and thanks for not dragging it out. I love how your story telling is honest and raw but yet the message is so inspiring and hopeful. It helps that you have so many supportive people but at the same time, I can see why so many people have your back. You are just that type of person that they want to cheer lead for. I bet your boss and your co-workers will really miss you on the job as well as your presence. It's good to know that there are kind and mentoring bosses that care about people and who can be the bigger person, even when they are laid off. I was laid off from my first job out of college which was about 40 years ago and it was so scary having to make rent, etc. But I was glad it happened when I was young because I always saved money and never took any job for granted. You are a positive and intelligent person with many talents. When one door closes, another one opens. Thanks for sharing!
It happened to me once in 2016. It really is like someone pulled the rug from under you! It took me a couple of months to find a better/dream job, but I took it all very hard! Looking back I wish I could've been less stressed out about the process!!! If you are a good person good companies will want to hire and work with you! That's basically it! When they interview you it's just a personality test! They want to see if you would be a good hang for 8hrs a day. If so you're in! Best of luck to you!!!
I wish I had 60 days notice. I did see the writing on the wall a few months before it happened, so not a 100% surprise. I was thinking of selling my house (to downsize, being empty nesters) and so I pushed up the home fixes to sell it sooner rather than later. I just sold when I got laid off. That saved me, financially. I found work with a temp service, then used the profits from my home sale to purchase a much smaller house. Then after a year, I got a much better job. I consider myself very lucky at my age to find a good job.
To be honest, if you/me/the girl in the video owned a business we all would do the same. You have to lay-off some times to keep other employees and the business afloat.
@@10speed4, if a business is being properly run than it should be growing and not need to lay-off anyone. I often look at layoffs as a symptom of a poorly-run-enterprise.

@@christopherpearman3422 yes and no. Electric cars are a good example. Three years ago they couldn’t make them fast enough, now they hardly sell. Interest rates also hurts businesses, building new homes have slowed down to a crawl because of it.
Sorry to hear about the job situation! I can relate as I had a job that I loved and then was unexpectedly pushed into leaving. I left my job in 2023 with a severance package that has given me some time to think. Basically, I am still floundering though. The job market is tough. I have a master’s degree in Statistics but I am not optimistic about getting a job in data analysis. I like math and thought about teaching math in middle school or high school. You mentioned you taught middle school math, maybe you would consider trying that again. There’s a lot of school systems out there and job security in teaching seems better than job security in the private sector. Best of luck with whatever you decide to do!
As a former school teacher Teaching at schools is a very difficult career and one that I'd only suggest as a last resort to someone who has some experience in a data career.
I hope you are able to find a job that you love soon! From my experience, teaching definitely has better job security than the private sector, but I know that its not the right fit for me. 💜
The irony is we are all are told that we should strive to not be dependent but our societal structure makes us dependent, in a capitalistic society we have to rely on someone else whom has the power to give us the opportunities we desire and remember when one is given an opportunity the other has to lose, our current structure everyone cannot win there has to be losers which is very primitive. Hopefully one day humans will ascend to no longer be driven by accumulating (monopoly money) "wealth" and instead work to better ourselves and humanity as the driving force.
You mentioned something there that I think is the most important thing, that you now have marketable skills and EXPERIENCE. The way you got into this career isn't the same as continuing in this career. You have the skills, for now grieve the loss of a good job/co-workers/comfortability, and embrace the uncertainty/change. Still sucks but take it day by day.
1st. I feel your pain. 2nd. This will happen over and over again. To minimize țhat type of impact on your financial, emotions, stress, i would try to save more of your income in the next job, invest in etf or stock that pay dividends. A small percentage can be used to invest in high growth volatile stocks. Invest with risk management in mind so that you won't have to worry about having income to live. It is much harder for older people without a job to get a job. Being laid off sucks.
good for you for the amazing attitude. from my very 1st real job in IT - there have been nothing abut layoffs all around me. i learned early on that i needed to look out for myself... i was never impacted - but watching especially older people lose their jobs is also very tough to take. . i always had fear i'd be hit - so i saved - saved saved ... now i'd like to get laid off because i';ll get a big severance. i am ready to be done with working. you will do great ... i can see it....
They at least told you they were letting you go. I've been getting let go randomly, sometimes they don't even say anything, I'm just off the schedule one day without warning and that's it. I've had no warnings at any of these places. I dunno, my co-workers just get me fired by being massive sources of irritation until I snap, then I get in trouble, then it just goes downhill from there, every, single, time. You have to be able to work with actual morons without snapping. I don't know how I made it through school, I think the people I've worked with the past 3 years have been dumber and definitely more infirm than school kids. My best co workers have been high schoolers, girl or boy doesn't matter, they're the least irritating to work with and don't act like they're injured/sick/infirm/handicapped/tired 24/7.
Having 60 days grace before leaving gives you time to plan and prepare for your next move but it's still not a nice feeling to be laid off. You've said you know it will be okay so try to focus your energy on that instead of something you can't change or control.
Save money. Do not throw it away at coffee shops, unless you are networking face-to-face with someone. I love your positive attitude at the end. You will do well
Don't let your value be tided up in your job (societal expectations and capitalism are artificial constructs). Your true value is your purpose and how you distribute your humanity to the world!
Warn laws vary but they require 60-90 days notice or comparable severance pay depending on your state . So people check your state if notice they must compensate if cut large enough.
It depends on the size of the company and the amount of people being let go. If you work for a mom & pop and they can no longer afford to keep you on board WARN doesn’t apply.
When you get a new job, immediately update your resume so that its always ready to go. And even if you have a job, scan the job boards, like Monster or Indeed, SImplyhired, it becomes a habit after a while.

This is the fear i constantly have. To lose my dream job that i started in January. Ofcourse there's other jobs too if i do get let go, but i really like the company.

Me too, started a data engineering position in June and I'm scared shitless of losing the job, even though everyone in the company assures me it's a good company.
Apply for unemployment benefits, get drunk….take a few days or a few weeks off…spend time with friends/ family. Then start the job search process….. it’s soul crushing but you want to be in the right head space when starting out with applying and interviewing
Apply first...the right attitude will come in time but delaying applying for new jobs will create some weird void and there's never going to be the perfect moment when your fully over it
Yeah, the same thing has happened to me over the years, big corporate pulls this shit all the time. They get their grubby mitts on as many people as they can, and once they realize that they've carelessly overhired, they ruthlessly lay off as many people as they can, returning it to a skeleton crew whom they subsequently work to death. It emphasizes everything that's wrong with capitalism. Hopefully you will get hired quickly, by an organization that will treat you right.
It might be the first time that you were laid off but it certainly won't be the last (especially if you work in Tech). Smooth sailing year = prime candidate for layoffs. LIve and learn, kid.
Unfortunately I would go medical logistics then start a business that is always needed and stay away from corporations that your so easy to be laid off and build your own business in this process. Jobs will keep firing you unfortunately it’s gonna get worse.
.....your skill set is gold, young lady...........RAMP UP............structure an assertive job search program.......(5 formal job applications a week, for example)...........list target companies and jobs.......being aggressive with the job search PAYS OFF..............limits the emotional drain.........and fills a lot of time.....MAKE THE BEST OF THIS OPPORTUNITY......this is the company's LOSS and YOUR GAIN.................SHOW THE WORLD WHAT YOUR MADE OF...............................
but with this recent landscape HR ppl will be sympathetic, if they choose not to hire simply because of this video then what kind of horrible people they are! she didn't badmouth this company too! What's your problem being so close-minded?
It's interesting watching the marsh-mellows having their first lay-off. In many areas like tech & defense it happens 3-4 times in your life. My lay-off happened the day before my wedding. It taught me to trust one thing - myself.
You’re Qualified to be a mother by nature and have a husband to support you , why a career is more important than have a family who will fill the gaps ?
The mere fact that you were laid-off means it really WASN'T your dream job to begin with. Don't define yourself as your J O B. That's extremely limiting, and amounts to setting yourself up for disappointment.

Look at the bright side. You are a strong independent want that needs no man.
it is just a job. You can always find a new one
It is better to reduce the emotional attachment to a job position.
You have to learn the hard way, there is no "dreamjob" and companies dont give a sht. Be more selfish and do what brings you money, not passion
Try to do what you enjoy and that makes a reasonable amount of money. Nothing is harder than a job you hate.
It sounds sad that you think you cannot have both, money and an enjoyable job
All these remote jobs are going to be drying up, AI can do this kind of work they don’t need people. Time to go back to the drawing board.
Unfortunately I would go medical logistics then start a business that is always needed and stay away from corporations that your so easy to be laid off and build your own business in this process. Jobs will keep firing you unfortunately it’s gonna get worse.
Nothing new. Boomers went thru this also.
Just learn a self sustaining skill where you don't need a job to generate income.
.....your skill set is gold, young lady...........RAMP UP............structure an assertive job search program.......(5 formal job applications a week, for example)...........list target companies and jobs.......being aggressive with the job search PAYS OFF..............limits the emotional drain.........and fills a lot of time.....MAKE THE BEST OF THIS OPPORTUNITY......this is the company's LOSS and YOUR GAIN.................SHOW THE WORLD WHAT YOUR MADE OF...............................
It's the economy, and it is only going to get worse.
It's going to get A LOT WORSE if the grinning, cackling hyena is cheated into office.
This economy is great, Jack!
imagine posting on a public form you were laid off? HR people look up you name and will see this stuff you know? Good luck on your search
but with this recent landscape HR ppl will be sympathetic, if they choose not to hire simply because of this video then what kind of horrible people they are! she didn't badmouth this company too! What's your problem being so close-minded?
Your kids will understand
It's interesting watching the marsh-mellows having their first lay-off. In many areas like tech & defense it happens 3-4 times in your life. My lay-off happened the day before my wedding. It taught me to trust one thing - myself.
I was at a company that went bankrupt literally when I was on a trip to finish adopting my son from South Korea.
Now hold on there, you’re telling the truth and we all know the internet doesn’t like truth tellers.
You are the pushover who cannot and will not offer good words to her. Great, you now lose faith in humanity. So?
@@10speed4 the internet alr has truth tellers like yall, now the internet can do with more positivity
If you're voting for Kamala, then you deserve it
America Dream is Long gone !
Definitely not true. A good way to find the American dream is through starting and owning your own business.
@@suncat9the American dream is bullshit
Isn’t capitalism fun?
America is full of opportunity
It's a lot more fun than socialism or communism.
@@suncat9no
Vote democratic this is what you get
Oh she will. No doubt.
Nothing to do with American politics, this crap is happening worldwide
Companies don’t want people to work for home anymore economy is slowing .
Millions of people continue to work remotely (at home or on the road). That was the one good thing to come out of COVID, and won't change.
The incessant up-talking makes it too difficult to finish listening to this 😕
You’re Qualified to be a mother by nature and have a husband to support you , why a career is more important than have a family who will fill the gaps ?
you are delusional- their is no perfect job/dream job- As for the one staring at the clouds he will not grow rich
You should have voted, Trump. Maybe next time.
The mere fact that you were laid-off means it really WASN'T your dream job to begin with. Don't define yourself as your J O B. That's extremely limiting, and amounts to setting yourself up for disappointment.
