"We made the mutual decision to part ways"

What they really mean

This decision was not especially mutual

"After thoughtful conversations, we made the mutual decision to part ways and I'll be taking some time to reflect on what's next."

"One side had HR on the call and the other side had no warning."

I got fired two weeks ago and finally stopped crying

I got laid off and my therapist said to reframe it positively

Please for the love of God someone hire me
