I just got laid off and I’m actually happy about it

I worked for a private, family-owned consulting firm. The work itself was good but the environment was toxic due to the lack of HR and oversight. I felt like the owners of the business were trying to push me out and ultimately they let me go this week, saying “our priorities were not aligned.” I didn't make a fuss about it though. The place got increasingly more toxic in the last few months and I was already casually applying for other jobs. Now my time is freed up to job hunt while I'm getting severance. Yay for not being tied down to shitty jobs!
