Feel free to vent, Shovel.
It's certainly disconcerting, no matter how it happens. My whole office got the axe. We're the SMEs on a specific area, but we're an outstation, and the prime contractor apparently considered us and the other outstations to be low-hanging fruit when faced with a mandatory 40% workforce reduction. Job performance was irrelevant.
Three of us losing jobs within a few weeks time. This well and truly sucks.
Cleave - no luck on me finding another job yet, though not for lack of trying.
Bringing this back to training, my coach wanted to have me back off a bit on intensity after my next race and switch to longer rides for a while. That part works out.
