That's a good lesson to know. I've had great bosses who definitely care about me. But - they aren't the ones who have laid me off. They were directed to by their boss' boss. I remember my boss literally crying as she let me go, she didn't want to, but the company forced her to.
HR, the company, we're all disposable. But, I still try to look for a good manager
I do think my manager at the time was a good manager and I'm sure he cared to some degree. He was usually pretty stone cold emotionally but I expected that to be different on that day I guess.
And yeah I understand that the company forced him to do it, I don't blame him at all.
I've had to let people go. I was a wreck inside, but was stone cold on the outside because who the fuck am I to be getting emotional when it isn't my livlihood being taken away?
