My company hired a new manager (the son of the boss's friend) things never clicked between him and i. long story short, i got fired.

I'm not surprised but it still hurts allot more than i thought

Yeah it's destabiliIng especially in that context but if you are not financially ruined I say aee it as a chance to explore better options and change.

When I got fired I received unemployment for 3 months and got a better paying job! Then that fucked up my brain and now I'm completely burned out and a depressed wreck. So look at it as an opportunity, not a problem!

Did you receive your full salary from unemployment
its also gonna leave a hole in my cv and recruiters don't like that

I'm sorry about my spelling errors. Other anon is right but you'll get used to not working again like during COVID. You only get like a certain amount per week. If you made near median it will be a bit of a decrease per week.

Take the promotion. If you really dedicate a couple hours a day to becoming wealthy, it will happen.

Looking for another job, the last time I was laid off I found another one in less than 10 days.

Fired three times.

First one I had moved from accounting to sales. I hated sales and sucked at sales and got fired after a year. It was a blessing. Took three months before I found another job.

Second was a company going down the tubes. I survived three rounds of layoffs. This one was tough because I was busting my balls. The package they offered was horrible. But the good part is they hired me as a contractor on a commission basis and made out well.

Last one was earlier this year. Knew it was coming and had a job lined up, but it was close. I had sent out 90 resumes in the three months before getting fired and one clicked just before my last day.

Treat getting a new job like a job. Work on it every day. And take time to better yourself and get other things done around the house.

The key is your contacts/network. Find people who can recommend you to others. Ask their permission to use them as a reference. Ask them to review your resume. I've had 9 professional jobs and the last 6 were gotten through my network.

These days due to the job market it's easier to convince a potential employer that you spent that time looking for a job.

I'm fine. Getting fired/laid off isn't the worst thing that can happen.

Just kill yourself. There’s nothing to look forward to.
