Got “laid off” due to the market and my performance, yet a coworker with lower performance is still there

Yep and I'm pretty pissed off.

So while I did my best it apparently wasn't enough. I would have hoped we'd get more of a warning, because in the meeting he didn't make it seem like we'd need to look for other jobs, or anything – I thought if anyone would get laid off we'd get some sort of severance, but nope – laid off on a Friday after my lunch.

I'm pretty salty and tbh, I kinda want this place to fail.
