Today I received the unfortunate news that my position as a mobile application developer is being eliminated due to budget cuts at the company. I've only been with the team for 8 months, and it seems they're targeting newer employees to minimize severance costs. This has hit me hard, especially as a 35-year-old father trying to provide for my little boy. I'm feeling really down and unsure about how to break this news to my wife and child. The job market is tough right now, and I'm starting to doubt my career in development. I’m overwhelmed and don’t know what my next steps should be. Should I consider changing careers altogether? It’s a lot to process.
