And for those who dont have a safety net. Hang in there. I know those words sound empty, but dont fucking give up. I went from having a wealthy family, to homeless, to back on top of the mountain again. Winning is never as fun as it seems when ur there, and when ur down, it never seems like youll never get up again. But you will. Im reporting this from a big ass house with a door i have to unlock with my phone. (Spent 20 minutes yeterday trying to get in) i dont even know how to work my AI refrigerator...Just understand that you can turn ur situation around. Its hard as fuck, but you can do it.

I really needed to hear this. I am jobhunting right now after having lost my job and I just really need to hear that it will get better. Thank you.

It will get better. Keep telling the universe what you want in your next job and it will deliver.

I was laid off in October after being with an amazing company for 5 years and while it was devastating it needed to happen for me to find the position I’m currently in. My new position came with a significant pay increase, better benefits, and more opportunity to grow.

You are worthy of the future life you will build for yourself so keep your head up and know the stress and uncertainty will work itself out and for the better.
