I’ve had a few breakups, but I’ve only been made redundant once. There’s a surprising overlap between the two…
And with that, I’d better get back to it. Today’s mission is to finish checking-in on my list of “companies I’ve always admired and thought I should work for” and see if any of them are actively looking for somebody like me!
(Incidentally: if you’re into open source, empowering the Web, and making the world a better place, my CV is over here. I’m a senior/principal full-stack engineer with a tonne of experience in some radically diverse fields, and if you think we’d be a good match then I’d love to chat!)
Who in hell fires people by email? That’s cold. If I ever do that to one of my colleagues then anyone reading this has open permission to give me a slap.
This feels fairly accurate. I have been lucky enough to stay in contact with my team. I have been telling friends that it feels like a divorce none of us wanted.
In my case, I would put “Find out by email” within the intersection 😄
