Layoffs at my wife's work today

She found out on Friday that she’s safe, thankfully, but still uncertain about some of our friends who work there. I’ve been through it a few times, always a shitty day... Apparently her boss is “on the list”, so it’s going to be a weird/stressful few months while things shake out and order is reestablished. Sounds like she’ll be the de facto head of the department for the short term (not sure if it’s a job she actually wants in the long term).
