LAYOFF Tips and Tricks
Folks, As we’ve just made it through yet another layoff, we likely have another one right around the corner, and it’s time to start prepping! While all of us (all 786 of us) probably don’t know what the future holds, we hope these “tips and tricks” help you manage your definite pending layoff that much easier.
Rule No 1: if you haven’t done so already, devoid your workspace of anything personal. This way your exit on the day of your layoff is a quick in and out. No thinking should I take this or that. Boom! You gone!
Rule 2: Immediately save any documents from your PC and take them home on a jump drive. No matter what they say, you’ll never have a chance to get those back!
Rule 3: take some longer lunches. Who cares, right?
Rule 4: those free sodas are free. Drink more of those bad boys.
Rule 5: come in late, leave early. Again, you’re about to get canned. Who cares.
Rule 6: Use your downtime to start prepping your personal sales pitch or honing in on your dream of starting a business.
Good luck, everyone!
