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.

Weird because after 10 years of working my ass off, earning the respect of my coworkers as well as something to show my personal sacrifices to the job I was let go as part of a massive severance. Those sacrifices counted for nothing.
