I spent a grueling extended weekend tirelessly updating data models for my day job, only to be hit with the sobering realization that my employment could still be hanging by a thread. This stark reality isn't unique to me—it's a shared experience for many in today's economy, where job performance doesn't always equate to job security. Tune in as I lay bare the intricacies of working in an at-will state, revealing personal anecdotes, and a friend's tale of exceeding sales quotas only to be laid off in a company's cost-cutting measure. 

We also venture into the thorny terrain of union negotiations and wage contracts, debating the potential for them to burden companies during economic instability. Could these agreements, intended to protect workers, inadvertently lead to industry-wide layoffs and financial turmoil? I share my philosophy on this complex issue and invite you to consider the delicate balance that needs to be struck in the modern workplace. This episode isn't just a contemplation—it's a call for a deeper understanding of the employment landscape and its cascading effects on businesses, the economy, and the individual worker.
