And in that case, I think for the mission to continue, I must be let go. Like for me, that doesn't hold weight anymore because the mission is the mission. It's their mission, not my mission.

I think in a place like Pure Charity, Adam, you were very aligned. And there are times where you are working somewhere where you're like, I totally believe in what we are doing. And so maybe there it's a bitter pill, but one that is worth swallowing because, yeah, now at least the organization isn't going to crumble. I have to go, but it will continue.

But in cases where it's more about the money or maybe the relationships or you like the work you're doing, but you're not like, you know, it's Walmart or something where it's like, fine, it's a grocery store slash department store.

I'm just saying, I think in that case, mission oriented matters. If you're going to have that kind of, I wouldn't have that outlook myself. I've never been laid off. I've never worked in a large organization. So I have a very, Me too.

Yeah, always small. But I'm not exactly happy to be a cog, you know? I want to try my best to be indispensable. I want to be the person where they're like, we're laying off 20% and we can't get rid of this guy because he's too useful.

And so I think if I was laid off in that circumstance, if I was indispensable and they didn't know I was, then I would be like, this is a huge mistake they're making. And I would like for that to be true. Like then they go ahead and lay me off.
