Before redundancy happens to you, it often happens around you. Colleagues are laid off. Departments shrink. Friends lose roles. For many UK workers, these moments are observed from a safe distance. It is easy to detach, to rationalise, or worse, to judge. “That wouldn’t happen to me.” “They should have seen it coming.” “They didn’t add enough value.” These thoughts are rarely spoken aloud, but they exist.
Redundancy has a way of humbling even the most confident professionals. Once you experience it firsthand, the narratives change. The same system that removed others has now removed you. This shift can be painful, but it is also instructive. How you responded to others’ misfortune often mirrors how prepared you were for your own.
What are your thoughts? What is your mindset? - Jack Lookman - Olayinka Carew - Amazon - https://amzn.to/4aazj6e
Mocking misfortune may not usually involve nasty laughter. Sometimes it's a silent dismissal. Scrolling through previous postings about layoffs. Ignore warnings. Assume immunity. This approach is especially problematic in the UK employment market, where many jobs appear to be steady until they aren't. Redundancy rarely affects only the careless. It focusses on structures, budgets, and future estimates.

Those who reflected while others fell were more likely to prepare silently. They updated their talents. Built networks. Saved fiercely. We looked over many solutions. They did not panic, but they were attentive.

If you are currently redundant, this reflection matters because it shapes your recovery. Bitterness slows momentum. Humility accelerates it. Accepting that no role is untouchable frees you to build resilience without shame. It also deepens empathy, which surprisingly becomes an asset in interviews, networking, and new opportunities.

UK employers increasingly value emotional intelligence. They want people who understand uncertainty, not those shocked by it. When you speak from experience rather than judgement, your story becomes credible. Redundancy, when processed honestly, can make you more grounded, adaptable, and relatable.

Reflecting and learning also means paying attention to patterns. Which roles disappeared first? Which skills remained in demand? Which industries contracted? Which people transitioned fastest? These observations are practical, not philosophical. They inform where you place your energy next.

Many redundant workers waste time trying to restore their old identity instead of building a stronger one. Reflection shifts the question from “How do I get my old job back?” to “How do I become harder to discard?” That question leads to skill stacking, visibility, and diversification.
