Lol. Been there. And it actually can be rough. The company I stupidly spent 15+ years working for refused to use new tech. So while I got a large severance, I didn’t have experience with the tech people hired for. I had to learn new stuff on my own, then structure my resume so that it didn’t make it clear that I had not used that tech in a professional setting. That at least got me interviews here and there. But in the end, it was basically just luck I was able to get a new job.
I often wonder what my life would be like if I had listened to the people who advised me to work a few years at my fist company and then change companies a few times early in my career.
