Damn I was part of may the 4th lay off from Shopify. They locked me out instantly from my crucial immigration related document on my work laptop, and there was no help whatsoever. Very ugly. Still remember.

Was also laid of from Qantas when my dad died from cancer 2 months ago, I'm still flabbergasted by it

Well, the person who decided to lay you off probably didn’t care enough to know, if that makes you feel any better.
