One of the best part of hosting this podcast has been meeting you all out there so this episode is extra special with a listener coming on! After losing his job and searching for others conversation on the topic Peter found our podcast by looking up “Getting Fired’ and finding our episode 57 on when it happened to me!

    Quotes

     

    “It’s important to reframe the situation. Instead of thinking about what’s wrong thinking about what’s right.” - Peter Maslanka

     

    “It’s ok to exit, even if it’s not on your own terms. There’s no shame in exiting, no shame in getting fired there’s always something out there for you.” - Peter Maslanka

     

    “Everyday is gonna be it’s own thing, you don’t know what’s gonna happen even when you feel like you’re comfortable and you know exactly what’s gonna happen. Someone else can make choices to change up your day. Whether it’s work or it’s other things. We don’t have control like we think we do.” - Host Dave Swillum
