    Are you sure you can find another job in a few weeks?

    I thought the same when I was laid off from a contractor in February due to musk’s bullshit, and I didn’t even get an interview until August despite hundreds of applications, a decade of engineer level experience in the field and multiple letters of recommendation. I basically only got the interview because my wife worked there.

    I got hired based on merit, but at 50% what I was making before and as an entry level tech.
