Still pretty shook about being laid off. I was under a contract role which they extended this January so I was relaxed. This friday I finished and submitted a huge query to my manager to scale up and then at 5.30 pm I got a call from my consultancy that my contract has been cancelled due to budgeting and restructuring. My manager has no knowledge of it and wasnt consulted into this. Became we had some huge projects in the pipeline which would now be stuck in a limbo. I loved my job and the team and my mind is not accepting that this has happened.

With layoffs always looming, it pays to be ready
Keep your resume polished and LinkedIn updated because opportunities can appear out of nowhere. Start building a solid emergency fund, ideally six months to a year of living expenses, so you aren’t scrambling if things go south. Try to avoid major purchases and trim unnecessary spending now, even small savings add up. And if the worst happens, use any severance wisely, take a breather, and give yourself time to regroup. Staying organized and calm can make a stressful situation much more manageable.
