Today, I received a company-wide email at 3 PM informing us that we need to check our personal emails in three hours to find out if we still have our jobs. The anticipation is unbearable, and I can't help but feel anxious as we were all told to leave the office by 5 PM, with only remote work allowed tomorrow for those who remain employed. Honestly, I’ve been unhappy in my role even after receiving a recent raise, so I wouldn’t mind being laid off. But waiting for three hours to learn my fate feels especially cruel. I worked remotely today, so I’m out of the loop on any office gossip, and it seems like Slack has been eerily quiet since the email went out. To cope, I’m having a couple of drinks while I wait for the executives to decide my future. It’s frustrating how impersonal these mass emails are. It would be more humane to have an all-hands call and deliver the news directly to those affected instead of leaving us hanging. I just hope I can gather any necessary documents or KPIs for my portfolio before the final decision is made. I’ve seen others go through similar situations, and it’s tough. I’ll update later, but right now, I’m just trying to get through this waiting game.
