I can't worry about being left without a job non-stop. I'm tired of it. I have a feeling my mental state would do better if I didn't have a job and had to spend my days searching for one. At least I would be doing something. Like this, I depend on the decision of others day in, day out. It's too much.

Worrying about being laid off su-ks, but being laid off is definitely su-kier. Either way, it’s all out of our control and out of our hands.
Worrying is like a rocking chair. It gives you something to do, but it doesn't get you anywhere.
Forget about the layoffs. As hard as it is to do, just need to forget about it and do your job for as long as T-Mobile employs/pays you. But be prepared. Have everything ready for the just in case, then deal with it if it should happen. But as long as people are getting a paid it should be business as usual.
If you are not a contract worker, your job stability can only be secured by the trrms listed in the employee handbook.
Agree
We have no control over the layoff. Honestly my work load is really slow right now so I’m using the time (at work) to apply for a least one decent job a day. I’ve turned down a couple bad offers but some are promising. It’s not the end of the world if we get laid off just the start of a new chapter in our work life. Stay focused on Lord Jesus and everything else will fall into place.
I feel the same as well. Would prefer to spend time job searching vs throwing my time into the black hole that is tmobile. 80k employees, 99% of us being middlemen, chained by inefficient processes and systems. Has to be more out there
