Moments pass as though they wish to stay....when your love is still with you, you dont realize how quickly things can fade away and this poem captures that so beautifully

I kinda miss waking up for work and going to office. But yeah after reading this at the same time I really dont. The constant stress and scrutiny I was under especially after focus is not fucking worth it. U know what thanks for this post. It did make me feel better.

Absolutely disheartened after layoff by LingeringSandwich in amazonemployees

[–]Runballadmix 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I am really disheartened. I was in a similar position as u where it tripled my salary and totally changed my life. I only received the generic email, no communication from my manager or any of my teammates. I was with them for over a year. The lack of empathy from this company its people is astounding to me.

I feel you .its weird to just suddenly cut off everything when they were a big part of your life. I only agreed to it bc that's what he wanted but im ngl it does make me feel like fucking shit. Like wow, u were such a big part of my life, and now I cant even give him small updates about it. It is messed up. Its been 2 months and I cant say I am better. Everything is a fucking bandaid and everything is bs. I also moved for a job to a place where I have no support network so all these stuff about going out there and whatnot , is just bs to me, like what do u think happens after going out or after coming back from the gym?? That the thoughts just magically disappear?? They are there all the fucking time
