အလုပ်ပြုတ်ခြင်း အနုပညာ
Losing a job in this adversity isn’t fun but telling people that I got laid off isn’t as hard as I think. I first shared the news with Dad after work. I gave him ins and outs. After our lengthy conversation over the phone, he sympathised and encouraged me to stay motivated.
“You must share the news with Mum,” he suggested.
“Nah, I will text her.” I have my reasons.
“Chick chick chicken” he teased me.
I ignored him and texted her - Mum I have got bad news for you. I got laid off today. There were many and I unfortunately happened to be one of them.
Eventually, I ended up dialling her. We started the conversation with the usual pleasantries, and then I broke the news.
“That’s not even the point,” I tried to argue back.
She ignored me but couldn’t hide her glee.
You have nowhere to go now but home.
She wants me to come back home.
I ran away from home to live by myself in a politically unstable border town. Home was the last place I wanted to go.
I must find a new job.

Her immediate response was: I’m sorry but this is not the end of the world. You won’t starve to death.
