I was laid off on Monday. Over the phone. While I was visiting a friend of mine who had recruited me into this job back in 1997.
I went in today to pick up my stuff and get the details on the severance package from HR. While driving home after that, my ipod, which is on random and annoys people when it plays individual tracks by Kishore Kumar; Liz Phair; Scorpions; Abba; Mozart; Iron Horse and Julie London, started playing Happy days are here again.
