Unemployed

Getting more funding meant "extending our runway" which means "reducing our burn rate" which of course means "reducing head count".

Which resulted in Ray getting laid off today.

I'm not mad or bitter. Three of us got let go from engineering, and of the five that are left, they're all brilliant and all have been with the company a lot longer than me, so I can't feel any shame at them being chosen to stay over me.

But I am in desperate need of some self-medication.

I'm thinking the espresso chocolate death thingy at Coldstone will work nicely.
