On the bright side, I get severance pay until March (plus a pro-rated bonus and PTO payout) so I definitely have it a lot easier than others! I have a lot of good friends that have been laid off and all they get is a final paycheck

At least I'll know that the increase I'm paying in taxes is going to someone I (kinda) know!

I wish I qualified for free money

How about we just get rid of the middle man and you can just cut me a check each month?

First off, happy birthday to you.
Second, I thought I read "Laid on my BDAY!!" and was wondering why you had the thumbs-down symbol.
Third, then I read carefully; sorry about being laid off.
Fourth, best of luck finding a new job (and hopefully you can enjoy a little time off)!

Welcome to the real club within i-club!

Don't stress too much! You're job isn't you're everything. There are many more things to be thankful for than just an income.

Don't resort to giving handies at a bar for money.

Happy birthday anyhow.
