Our layoffs have been happening over a year and it has been so difficult as I've known about 95% of them. I agree that it is so difficult to remain positive and cheery through it, the feeling I had of being two-faced and lying to people in the lead up was horrific.
I was asked more than a few times what was happening and I just told everyone that I had no idea and that all correspondence was marked private so I never read any, and all email attachments were passworded! People gave up asking when they thought I didn't know anything and why they thought I'd tell, I have no idea!!
I only have today and 4 days next week and then I'm finished
My redundancy has unsettled a lot of people as I was seen as key to operations, and now there is talk of the business up for sale, our CEO on notice etc.
