I suspect that since a quarter of my fellow co-workers got the pink slip a few weeks ago, tat I too will get one soon. I haven’t updated my resume in a while and would love if there was a self hosted LinkedIn alternative or something. Anyone got any idea if that’s a thing yet?

    As an HR professional, that’s just incredibly hurtful to read. I’m really sorry you had that experience, which is making you generalize a whole a set of people based on what they are working on. And it’s also bad to see a lot of people just jumped on the hate train and upvoted it.

    This level of armchair negativity contributes nothing to the conversation.

        I was not expecting to change your opinion instantly. I’m sure you have real experiences backing up your sentiments.

        Still I hope you get this same feedback from other places, and realize that the world is usually not black and white, bad and good… and you’re actually welcomed to develop more sophisticated views of things and people around you.

        It’s all easy and cozy to think in extremes, but it will get you nowhere as a person.

      That’s true most of the time. It’s like the parking lot for some low level managers and the likes. And nobody usually cares until they find issues in their payslips.
