My wife used to work in print here in Germany but she was smart and took the buy-out. She turned down the first buy-out which we laughed at that others accepted, but a year later was offered three times the amount. Also she was due to give birth and worked the paid time off for that into the deal.
It sucks bad to just have your job eliminated with nothing more than a last paycheck.
My wife recently started working again. She is going to interview Tim Bendzko today to kick-off the start of his music tour. Meanwhile I always have my eBay store.

Actually it is not Bendzko’s music tour alone, he is opening for Joe Cocker.

Good that your wife recently started working again.
Also smart to jump out of a dying industry before it sinks even worse.
New skills are always a challange but can be fun to learn some more.
