Of course in a capitalist system, you can have crummy employers as well as crummy employees.

The best part is, you can leave when you want! And look for another job. Like you did, although it was not easy.

The woman writing this diary was warned layoffs were coming. Were I her I would have started looking for work immediately. Maybe she did, but she doesn’t mention it.

If she found a better or even equivalent job, she should have quit job number one. That’s one less person they have to ‘lay off.’

I have sympathy for anyone who gets fired, unless they really asked for it. But I think she needed to be more proactive, like you were.
