Thread regarding Oracle Corp. layoffs

The world has become a sad place...

Seems like the world has gone downhill fast these last few years. Not just at work, but at home.

There suddenly seems to be fraud everywhere, people manipulating other people, people willing to lead children astray, possibly for a little cash.

You can't trust anyone these days. You can only do the best you can. Try to raise your family to have the right values, but with so much corruption around them, what can you do?

Even those places you think that are safe, maybe aren't.

Then, your workplace goes out from under you. You lose your job and there you are with just one more thing to take care of.

Oligarchy and fascism are taking over political systems all over the globe, this was accelerated under the first trump regime. It's now on steroids times 1,000 after the first year of the second trump regime.

If you are constantly lied to and taken advantage of, you get cynical, insular and mistrustful.

Great post @OP. This is true. You cannot trust anyone but yourself and your immediate family. Anything outside of that cannot be trusted. I have been dating and all these years have made me ruthless and what people may say selfish. I am not spending my money and time on anyone who has not earned my trust

Covid has changed something, but I can't seem to place my finger on it.

I hear you and agree - unfortunately in the last few years, I've adopted a policy of looking out for myself and my family. I still will help my fellow man, but I'm much more guarded than I've ever been before.
