Career euthanasia: What defines YOU?

In a surreal rush of secret meetings, hysterical colleagues and tears, I was randomly made redundant from my job last week. After 3 years with the same London PR agency, I was in complete shock. There was no warning whatsoever from management, and they had sneakily kept my immediate boss in the dark due to the close friendship we’ve had since day 1. They tackled him and I separately at the exact same time so we didn’t have a chance to communicate, and that was it. I was handed a letter with a list of jobs I wasn’t qualified to do, offered a sizeable payout, and it was quickly and painlessly over.
