SCENE: COVID, clients started backing out of / delaying design contracts.
My boss first cuts his own salary. He has seven kids.
PPP comes out and he applies for/receives it. Still keeps salary cut.
Company stays afloat through several tough months.
Finally, he has to lay me off.
No hard feelings; important to me that he can keep all my friends employed.
I live off of resourcefulness and moxie for a few months.
Fast forward to today. The firm made it, and their clients came back in full force.
I was the only casualty. I couldn't be happier.
I found a new gig and am very happy with my new lot in life.
In that anecdote, PPP kept ten families fed and [health] insured.
I hope that the fools who robbed us all during that time find justice at their door soon.
