Although I’ve not been laid off (sorry to hear that), had a similar experience tending to my garden recently. Working to keep some fussy plants alive in my garden has been surprisingly therapeutic and put a lot of other stuff in perspective

While the layoff was inconvenient, yes, it's put me in a better place at a better company. I was stagnant at my old one and starting to hate my work

I used to laugh at the king of the hill joke "Why would anyone do drugs when you could mow the lawn" but now I understand it completely
