Laid off and divorced
Schelley actually was laid off on the same date, May 16, from two different jobs, one year apart. One layoff occurred within 48 hours of her divorce becoming final. Ouch.
Meanwhile, in one of these layoff situations, her layoff was executed by someone she had never met. Another ouch.
Regardless, she’s got some stories. Let’s hit it.
