    I got laid off yesterday due to ‘economic issues’, and the juxtaposition of the stock market hitting a record high was not lost on me.

    Edit to add: just got confirmation that one of my programs is bringing in 80k today. This is fuckin wild man.

      That sucks, sorry buddy.

      On the plus side unemployment is also hitting record lows so there should be something out there for you.

        Yea I’m not too worried. I’m very hireable and will likely wind up getting a fat pay increase out of this. It’s just that I really loved that job and preferred to make less and stay.
