I was laid off, and I regret that I worked so hard at my job. I had a good performance rating and never expected this outcome. I worked in fusion tech support, where I cared deeply about my customers and the quality of my work, even putting in time on weekends. I was okay with not receiving a raise in exchange for job stability, but that’s not the case anymore.
While no one owes you anything in life, I realize there is no point in doing more than what is necessary for this company. I’m glad I didn’t waste a decade on this! Aging tech, awfully management, no raise, you wont progress there. I was a foul to have stayed 4 years!!!!
