My employer has informed me I will no longer have a job in a couple of months. This is a high turnover place that I've been with for 14 years. They aren't laying everyone off. It appears all of my other coworkers with the most seniority are being laid off as well. I can only imagine it's because we make significantly more than newer hires.
Employers do not care if you've worked for them more than a decade. They do not care if you do your job well, while 80% of the people they hire are fired or quit within the 1st year. They do not care if you have a family to support.
Use your PTO. Take your vacation days. Use your sick days. Don't do more than is required of you. Your employer does not care about you.
