I am a little nervous. My best friend, Nikita got laid off last Thursday. She cried. I never saw her cry. Not through our first layoff at our first company. Not trough a terrible divorce. Not through an empty bank account. But this lay off, it made her cry. I feel like I should fly to your porch and tell you all about it : ).
