Like I was working super long hours to try and keep them happy then they tossed me aside in budget cuts which sucks.

But the idea that I don't have to devote my life to the grind, even for a little bit, is great. I was in a full time position so I was going to have to save up for like 6 months to get a week off, but now i just get to chill til I feel like applying for a job again.

And yeah financially It'll hurt. But given I've had no time or energy to do anything for months, I haven't been spending. I've been skipping lunches and not going out anywhere or anything, I will be fine for a month without income.

The absolute joy and freedom from being let go is great.
