a few years ago , my employer of 13 years shut their doors and we all were laid off . i would probably have stayed at that place my entire career if it had n't closed . that must have been devastating . did it take you a long time to find a new position ? no , i worked at another place for a year or so , but it was terrible , so i left there and am now going to school for something better . so , it all has worked out well . i 'm glad things have worked out in the end for you . sometimes bad things happen for a reason .
The loss of a long-term job due to the employer shutting down.
