Just venting - this SUCKS

I'm so tired of this constant anxiety about potential layoffs. It feels like every other week there's a new rumor floating around. I work my butt off, consistently exceed expectations, and yet I'm still worried about losing my job. The stress is affecting my sleep, my relationships, and honestly, my overall mental health. I wish management would just be transparent about the company's plans instead of leaving us all in the dark. The uncertainty is the worst part. Rant over. Thanks for listening.

I totally get it. That constant low-level anxiety is exhausting. It's hard to focus on your work when you're constantly second-guessing everything. I went through something similar at my last job, and honestly, the best thing I did was start looking for other opportunities *before* anything actually happened. It gave me a sense of control and options, even if I ultimately stayed.

Transparency? At Affirm? Good luck with that. Management only cares about their bonuses. Been there, done that. Start prepping your resume and networking. Don't wait around for them to 'announce plans' because by then, you'll be scrambling with everyone else who got caught off guard. It's a dog-eat-dog world. Protect yourself.
