Layoffs are rearing their ugly heads again. Meta just announced their plans to lay off 5% of their employees. They said they want to let go of their underperformers. For those impacted by layoffs or those who are hearing the rumors, the whispers in the hallways that they could be next, it's gut-wrenching. I was laid off once. I know the feeling. But I want you to remember that you didn't choose this layoff, but you can choose what happens next. And there's one thing that people are not talking about— apathy. See, apathy is your worst enemy. If you've mentally checked out of your job, do something before something is done to you.
