Seeing all these mass layoffs today honestly broke my heart

I just wanted to say to everyone who got caught in this latest round of layoffs from Amazon, Target, Paramount, or anywhere else, I’m so sorry. It’s devastating watching thousands of people lose their livelihoods overnight because of “cost optimization.”

These are real humans with rent, kids, mortgages, and careers they’ve spent years building. I got laid off earlier this year, and I still remember that pit-in-the-stomach feeling when the email hit. It’s not just numbers on a spreadsheet. It’s people who did everything right and still got blindsided.

It’s completely unacceptable how normal this has become. The way companies treat layoffs like quarterly strategy moves instead of life-changing events for their employees? Something’s deeply broken in how we run things.

If you were impacted today, please know it’s not your fault. You didn’t fail. The system did.
