This afternoon I got a notification on Microsoft teams to go to HR. Suddenly I was in a meeting with my supervisor and was told my position was being terminated effective immediately with no reason. I tried to ask why they would not tell me why.

I said “understood” turned in all my stuff and went home.

Here I was thinking I’m safe cause everyone at the office liked me but that couldn’t be further from the truth. If it can happen to me it can happen to anyone. There is no such thing as loyalty in the corporate world or even consideration for other human you are just a number with a task that needs to be completed.

To my fellow antiworkers let me get this message across. If you live in an at will state you can be let go at anytime for any or no reason. Take care of yourself and build an emergency savings to tap in to in case this happens and always keep new opportunities rolling. Never get comfortable and strive to own your own business because that is the only way for true guaranteed financial freedom.
