My friend Michelle has been laid off from Microsoft. She’ll mostly likely move her family back to the US in a few months. In fact now it seems that everyone in the group of friends that moved here around the time I did will be gone by this summer.
It’s sad, but I can certainly see how living here is not for everyone. Michelle probably would have moved back anyway — getting laid off merely speeds up the process.
I’m so glad I left Microsoft. I’m glad for many reasons, but now I have a new reason. If I’d stayed, I would probably have gotten laid off too. And getting laid off now — a week before the baby is due — would have really sucked.
