The last time I left a company, they announced massive layoffs the next month. When was the last time you were similarly lucky? (Sub-question: is getting laid off with severance good or bad?) (discuss.tchncs.de)

I once left a job for a better position. Around 3 months later the recession kicked off, massive government cuts hit and LOADS of people lost their jobs. I was really really lucky that I was in reliable work.
