You know that saying, ‘What am I - chopped liver?’ Well, that’s what I remember thinking when I was made redundant a few years ago. ‘How come you don’t want me?!’
That, and I that wanted the outside world to think that it was MY choice to leave the company rather than have people think I was pushed. So in my leaving email, it was ‘Tracy has decided to leave’ rather than ‘Tracy was made redundant’.
And from what I can tell that’s normally the way it goes when people are made redundant. There seem to be a few negative connotations - you're not wanted but others are; you weren’t good enough to keep and so on.
But in my great age and wisdom and with the benefit of perspective I now look at redundancy in a very different way.
