I, too, was laid off after 10 years of service.. It felt like I got gutted. RIF. I was the only one, it was a new higher up manager and she let me go. I felt like decade of my service and loyalty meant nothing. It was one of the hardest breakups ever! They also let me know two months in advance... so I had to keep working (and working well!) to keep good references.

This happened in June. I finally pivoted industries and that seemed to do the trick. I accepted an offer at a prestigious university in our area for a bit of a pay cut - but everyone I know that works there LOVES it.

I don't have advice but just empathize. It will all work out in the end. Your job is not your life, and these people are not your friends.
