That really sucks what's happened.

I know this doesn't help but being told you've been the best manager for that person above I hope takes the edge slightly off the shitty situation.

I can't think of 1 manager I would've sent that to lol. So that says a lot and the next place will be lucky to have you.

I am scared all the time.

It didn't used to be like this.

The governments have been failing us for a very long time. The current state of things is scary

it's not just that

pay rates are 1/3 of what they were in the 1970s and yet society still has the same expectations

if the changes society has endured happened in a few years we would say we are in an economic depression but since it's been 50 years people pretend this is normal

and yes, the BIG failure is letting big business take our natural resources for free

we could be living like Norway

Exactly. The wealth disparity is growing

I’m so fucking sorry. I really hope you’re into another job quickly.

No idea if it helps but I saw this as a safeguard if worst comes to worst (and I hope it doesn’t) https://unison.org.au/about-us/our-properties/make-room-melbourne

Edit: Also I hope this is never needed but you can get medical care, food, and temporary boarding if necessary through Pets Of The Homeless https://www.petsofthehomeless.org.au/
