Last weeks thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

Well I survived the redundancies but some good work friends haven’t. I’m going to be seriously f’d off if the company is cruel enough to let them go this side of Christmas.

I hope you don't take it too hard. Often the people who keep their jobs feel much worse than the ones who lost theirs, as a sort of survivor's guilt.

I also wouldn't be surprised if they let the people go sooner rather than later. Hopefully they get a good redundancy package.

Thanks that’s actually useful to know. Been through a lot of restructures, and obviously there’s a lot of turnover during those times, but people have always left on their own terms.

This is a new one for me.
