Is it normal to be disgruntled? - Lemmy.World

Is it normal to be disgruntled after a layoff? I got laid off my IT role for a biggish MSP firm, they just called some people to say they had difficult measures to take, I was one of those people… So a month and so later, I’m still searching and I just feel bitter and jaded, I’m not getting calls back. Is it perfectly normal for me to feel this way about companies? I’m still confident I can try to get back into it from this setback but I just feel these firms no matter what industry they are, are utterly void of any camaderie. Am I going insane? (TLDR - Bitter Bri’ish guy who’s just asking if being infuriated with this isn’t like a mental disease)

are utterly void of any camaderie

Contrary to what all these companies claim in their internal propaganda, they are not your friends, they are not your family, and you are not even a person to them - you are just a human resource. Your work shouldn’t be your life or your way to “fulfill yourself” or “grow” (whatever the fuck that means). It is a way to obtain money so you can live your actual life. Never feel like you owe anything to a company.

However, the individual friendships you made at the workplace are often real. Stay in touch with people you know, and help each other out.
Yes, I agree.
