I got laid off on Friday. I don't really know if I should consider this to be an inherently bad thing. The way I've looked at it, I've been contemplating off and on for the last couple of months to head off and look for greener pastures. I'm reminded of a passage from Fight Club where Tyler confronts a fellow staff member about their fear over getting fired and he tells them that maybe getting fired will actually motivate them to do something better with their life. For some reason that was one of those passages that stuck with me. I have a few leads on other jobs, so I suppose it's not the getting the job that's what I'm trepidatious about, but rather what the job will mean for me in the long run of things. I think I should be more concerned about this, I really do, but I think part of me has gotten comfortable with tthe notion of being disappointed and let down.
