‘Why me?!’: Employee escapes first round of dismissals, only to find out that 80% of his team has been fired

One of the cruelest and most difficult arenas to succeed in is the corporate world. Nobody considers your particular background, objectives, or preferences. You are only a pawn in an incredibly laborious, protracted game of chess.

The following is an account of a bewildered employee who survived the first round of layoffs. For a significant duration, the original poster (OP) was employed by the same company. Having said that, OP certifies that he isn't the most outstanding worker and is unworthy to be among the select few team members who were spared from termination.

Thus, make sure to read the account below if you're interested in hearing the testimony of a perplexed worker who finds it difficult to understand why his job is safe while others have been fired for no apparent reason! And when you're done, don't forget to read the story of the micromanager who watches his staff members with security cameras and microphones!
