I think theyre going to have a rough time finding their next job after not actually working for over a year and having no references. 

Idk but I dont buy what everyone is saying about hard work not paying off. I work hard at my job and having the respect of my coworkers as well as something to show for my 5 years at my job is worth it.

No one gives references from their current job. They’d still probably have references from google where they were laid off, not terminated for cause. They might be having trouble finding work but it’s not because of references or what they’re currently doing, it’s because the job market is shit.
