Did I Dodge a Bullet or Just Get Lucky?

I retired almost a year ago, thinking I was finally free from the chaos of corporate life. But four months back, my old company pulled me back in as a half-time consultant for a special project. The work is fascinating, and I genuinely liked my team. Then, out of nowhere, a massive reorg hit—VPs and AVPs gone, my department split into three, and my manager constantly looking over his shoulder. Now, I'm watching the fallout from the sidelines, feeling like I barely escaped the storm. My project continues, but with a skeleton crew and a lot less support. I can't help but feel anxious for my friends still in the trenches. Have any of you ever found yourselves slipping out just before things went sideways at work? How did you handle the guilt and uncertainty? I could really use some advice on how to process all this. 😬 Honestly, is it better to leave on your own terms, or wait for a severance that might never come? 🤔 #WorkplaceDrama #CareerTransitions #OfficePolitics #JobCareer
