I like how Dave is so upbeat, keeps steering the guy to "inevitable optimism".
He makes things up.
analytics consultant sounds like a job title at Wells Fargo. There are too many analysts around and the companies are looking to hire anybody who's under 30 years old. Speaking from real life.
Yeah in any type of situation like that when you are leaving a job not because you want to, you have to have at good of an attitude to not get stuck in an aggressive cycle from feeling bad.
We're all gonna die!!!!! How's that for optimism 🤔? Lol
You have to be upbeat or either lay on the floor of your closet in fetal.
Shoot. In my industry we have no severance pay, and we have no notice. We get laid off on the spot
Everyone needs data analytics guys really bad. There is so much data with the online world now and so few men who can organize and interpret it.
Union contractor?
Construction industry is like this feast or famine lots of work or none
Construction, I assume?
Then you're in the wrong industry.
If you think you're getting laid off, plan to look for a new job. 14 weeks is plenty of time.
Because of his field and expertise he will be able to find a good job. I was laid off twice in a three month span and looking for work right now is HORRIBLE. Yes there are jobs but the pay is $20K/year less than what I've been making with the cost of living steadily rising. This is NOT a good time to be unemployed
that is sooo true, there is too much downward pressure on wages and salaries!!!
"The Great Reset" is already in motion!😡😡
File unemployment and look for similar work
🤣 Lol this is a great job interview. Good job getting to talk to the boss without an interview.
Right! 😂. So smooth
What's this guy all worried about? My wife and I were both laid off at the same time, then rehired and laid off again two years later. Had another job within a month. We worked while getting our severence. Nothing to worry about - just keep working.
Dave is the wisest men I have ever seen. The more I watch his videos the more I learn about his wisdom.
Wisdom? It's all commonsense
@@johnlanier3616 unfortunately, it's not common sense for most people my brother. Look around you
Dave, your in lala land on the “marketplace”. Hope the caller isn’t mislead on that.
Dear Dave - in the SF Bay Area, companies are either laying off or on hiring freezes, period.
It's called a recession.
@@blackworldtraveler3711 indeed.
@@blackworldtraveler3711 Nope. Its called 'The Great Reset'.
@@anthonyfaucy2761
It's a recession.
Why not just wait for your great reset to happen then post about it.
In the meantime I will travel more.
Makes no sense to worry over things you can't control.
Dear Kristina, SF is a dump. Why are you there?
They told him that because they want him to leave without the severance and notice period pay.
Dave most of those jobs recently added are part time, low wage jobs with no benefits
exactly right. It's like 2007 all over again unfortunately. The math looks pretty awful, even compared to the great financial crisis. Much worse, actually.
Dave’s response was really awesome.
Sounds like he should apply to Ramsey Solutions.
You bet.
The caller is in great shape the company gave him a good heads up so he has time to look!
Great advice. People tend to look down rather than up in these situations.
“It feels like you have lost a love one” Yes!! My goodness, to hear you talk about that was so cathartic. (5:07) & thank you for the book recommendation (“Paycheck to Purpose” by Ken Coleman)
This is the WORST time to get laid off. With the upcoming recession, companies will begin massive layoffs and new hires will be the first to go.
Nothing really new.
It's what recessions do.
For some being laid off only means vacation.
No, it seems much harder generally speaking to look for work now. The employers are pickier and often after an interview is that they say "..have several other interviews to review.." also and even say "You are the first one.".
If it's harder for you just stay home.
Others will continue on looking and finding jobs.
"More jobs then people" If this was real it would be obvious and easy to get a job. People wouldn't have to jump through hoops and have MIT on their diploma for an entry level position. If they ACTUALLY NEEDED workers these places have plenty of people needing work, they just don't want to put the effort into new hires. They want someone worth $60 an hour to work for them for $16. As if someone is just going to hand over 80% of their earning potential for some lazy unproductive employer.
Lucky him, not all companies are that generous
Great video! Losing a job can be a difficult and stressful situation, but it's important to stay calm and think about the best course of action. Your tips for evaluating expenses, reaching out for support, and considering alternative sources of income are excellent. I hope the viewers who are facing layoff will find this video helpful and empowering.
Polish up your resumé.
It really is the best time to get laid off. I've never seen so many places hiring at such decent wages in few decades of working.
He has been promoted to customer. 👏
This was a great call, guys! :)
Have no doubt, we are headed for a depression. More lay offs are coming
Just because bloated tech companies are laying off people doesn't mean everyone is. My company is paying out record bonuses this year for example.
@@mineshaftrisotto Disney laid people off and so did Yahoo.
It's always a depression for broke people during recessions and layoffs especially the ones that didn't prepare for these things.
Many of those tech companies over-hired and are now thinning the herd to run more efficiently. Those days of getting paid to sit around posting and doing videos at work are over.
Just look around during these layoffs and notice that life goes on and business as usual for most.
I'm sure many of the non whiners and complainers were prepared with savings and investment with zero debt.
Become un-fireable.
Oh please cry me a river. All your doing is repeating what everyone else says
Start looking for a new job today. Go to interviews, get the new job give the resign letter don’t wait for them to layoff you.
Dave doesn't understand. You can't always go off what the media is saying about people not working. A lot of people are still out-of work and can't find jobs. The media and news channel only go off the people that are getting unemployment and so many people are not in the system and are struggling to find a job similar to what they had before.
Dave is definitely behind the 🎱 on this one 😢
Dave is living in a dream world. This is not the best time for be laid off looking for work
@@genxx2724 Disney laid people off and Yahoo too.
Everyone is getting laid off all up in here.
We went from “nobody wants to work” to massive layoffs in the blink of an eye.
Its only gonna get worse. This is the great reset.
Y'all are delusional. Some of the bigger public companies sure laid people off but there are so many needs out there. Just because some of the bigger companies laid people off, doesn't mean all of the jobs were eliminated. This gentleman has a great skill set needed in so many places and he won't have a hard time finding a new role.
@@JonathanHernandez-zt9wd Honestly, unless they are paying like $50k or above, the people do not have to fulfill this need.
We need to all be smart enough to say no and not give in.
95k in Indianapolis is not bad.
These guys always give the same advice to every caller. Find a job, work more hours (if you have a job) and go get married.
Dave is right times have changed ….these are projects not careers. Getting laid off with a severance package is awesome. There are jobs out there and this guy will make more money at a new gig.
Dave’s out of touch and has been for years. His advice helped me get out of debt 10 yrs ago but the guys worth 100’s of millions and lost touch with the common person 😮
I agree. It is okay to be optimistic but Dave seems to think it is easier to find employment than it actually is. i am currently also laid off and being close to 60 I am finding it difficult to find employment.
100% agree I've commented on exactly what you wrote.
When I first read the title, I didn't see the word "off"
Ummmm, start looking for another job.
analytics consultant sounds like a job title at Wells Fargo. There are too many analysts around and the companies are looking to hire anybody who's under 30 years old. Speaking from real life.
This the worst time to get laid off. Companies are doing mass hiring freezes. People have been without jobs for months.
THIS IS WHY THIS IS DAVEM RAMSEY SHOW . DAVE IS GREAT
DAVE THINKS JOB HUNTING IS EASY PEASY AND HIGH SALARY IS EASILY ATTAINABLE AMONGST ALL POSITIONS. DAVE, THAT'S NOT HOW LIFE WORKS NOW. DOESN'T MATTER IS THERE ARE TONS OF JOBS.
I hope Dave's optimistic view is right for this man, even if he doesn't sound convinced.
This guy was talking a bit like getting laid off was the end of everything. Dave was right, there are way more jobs than people, he can find a job within a few weeks, likely with a pay raise.
Yup been there done that.
Exactly. If worst comes to worst he can apply to flip burgers at McDonald's. Hey it ain't glamorous but beggers can't be choosers
Catasrophyzing fool.
There are not more good paying jobs than there are people. It's mostly low wage retail or fast food. The good paying jobs are all full. And people are getting laid off right now.
Just a new generation learning first hand about the recession like everyone else.
Also the hard headed ones that didn't learn from 2008.
Fast forward a year. Thanks Dave.
So that's why Dave is so mad about remote work. He's trying to hire people and can't. He hard core in office. But I do like Dave!!
This guy shouldn’t need to call a talk show to know he needs to be looking for a job NOW. He’s getting layed off with a lot of money out the door. Save the money and look for new jobs non stop. It’s a no brainer!
Fired and Redundancy are two different things.
This dude was totally seeking an invitation to apply to Ramsey
I like the support of optimism but please don’t tell this guy it is the best time to be laid off. We don’t know if he is going to land a job that pays more. Dave a man that has endless amounts of money. Cmon
Stay home for four months collect unemployment enjoy the time off. Then go find another job. That what I did .
I do not know about four months. Probably should be like two weeks.
Zeke-
It sounds like you and Elliot are possibly going to be coworkers again.
Jobs are plentiful but obviously this guy doesn't want to work at panda express, tech is a rough place to be right now.
Probably because many of you think at the Panda Express level.
My niece just got hired at a gaming company and moving to Europe at end of month.
Funemployment
I guess Dave doesn't know about tech layoffs....
Dave seems to be loosing touch with what’s happening year to year. Needs to retire with his useless on air commentators that don’t offer any meaningful financial advice, only sarcasm.
They were laying off unproductive departments
@@recabitejehonadab2654 As opposed to tighting touch?
Recession confirmed
I am/was in the mortgage business. I was laid off in September. There are zero jobs in where my experience lies. I would love to get into another industry/field, but, it seems that is not an easy thing to do. I am working a 1099 job that is not really stable. I need advice on what to do. I am of retirement age, but, cannot do that yet.
right there with you. Laid off since Nov as a recruiter
I am in a similar boat. It is not as easy to find a job especially if you are an older worker.
@@LoverboyB_Pookie it's much worse than 2008-2010..
@@mom2huskies I'm so sorry....such an unsettling time.
@@anitasings1 I am also sorry you are going through this too. I have an interview later in the week. The pay isn't great but at least it would be a steady income. I already I will have to put in for early SS in the next year. I hope you find a steady position too.
He makes it sounds so easy to go find a higher paying job. If it was that easy everyone would do it.
It’s interesting how certain industry just always get laid off, I’ve done electioneering work where we always get laid off once the project is over, it’s just the name of the game.
Once again Dave having never worked a real job being clueless again. Acting like it’s no big deal, sorry Dave but we are not all millionaires
He’s definitely lost touch with reality.
Best time to get laid off jobs are everywhere except we all know the data is cooked by the cooks at the bureau
Cooked to HIDE available jobs.
Dave think it will take weeks to get a job.
There have been people looking for months and haven't found a job.
You know how easy to find a data anyilist?
Dave needs to live in the real world.
He hasn't filled out a job application in 30 years. He just assumes it's easy peasy.
Agreed 👍 not easy...
Personal connections, that's the key!

Dave thinks you can buy a “ good car” with $500 too 😂😂.
Never saw a Data Nerd on the side of road with a cardboard sign! I know, because I'm married to one. They Kill It $
I’m glad your husband is doing well
Start delivering pizzas and eat beans and rice
Depending on the state, it is better to get fired. You may get UI.
Issue though is that if you get fired, you have to explain it to another employer.
This is awful advice. Not only is it bad for moral but also for reputation. Also when the company calls your previous employer for a reference and they tell the company you got fired then you can say bye bye to that job offer. Word travels fast especially in certain industries like tech and your reputation is finished if you got fired
Analytics people are in very high demand. Apply to the VA. We need people and are hiring from the general public.
Dave is cool.
Another caller that didn’t really have a question or reason to be calling.
He got layed off... no joke
I just got told the same thing at my job. Weeks left at most. God clearly wanted me to see this video.

Time for the wife's turn to help out.
Lol I clicked on this because I thought it said "about to get laid" 😅
Why does this guy even need to call Dave? I know lots of people who got laid off the same day they were told. No severance no nothing.
This guy has it made in the shade. What you stressing about dude.
Great advice, Dave!
Sounds like a job interview. Hired...
Must be Union. Dave having to do ALL his thinking work, it's so terribly sad!
Look for a new job? Pretty simple. Jobs are plentiful
Yup just go out there and pick one off of the job tree
@@NipponStiqqyPaint
Beggars can't be choosers if you slept through history class,ignored previous recessions, and didn't prepare.
You don't have that luxury to relax if paycheck to paycheck.
So you may not like the jobs you find but plenty out there.
@@NipponStiqqyPaintthis is funny 🤣🤣
It sounds like he doesn't want to work anymore.
When you lose a job what do you do? Get a new one. Just get a job you might not be making $95k just adjust your lifestyle. Of course the wife doesn't work, her job is keeping you in the dark.
Get unemployment and look for a job.
Send Brandon a thank you card
Dark Brandon! 😏
All his shows are set ups.
He almost said the dave ramsey show
@@genxx2724 Yep, but it’s a smart move because he won’t always be with us, and he wants the legacy of Ramsey to carry on.
@@DEBTFREEMIKE769 The show won't survive without Dave Ramsey. The other personalities are unbearable
This man stressed his wife out to no end. Bad husband.
You're fired! -- DJT
Find another job so you can fire THEM first. 🤭

You won this battle by a few milliseconds 😩
So proud of you
Dave hasn’t been an employee in so long, that he is clueless. More jobs than people looking for jobs; spoken like a truly mind-blind employer. Generally like his advice, but He cannot relate to the working person at all.
This is Brandon’s America
Cry baby...
I don't know but he probably wasn't a go getter...Those are the ones losing their jobs in tech. The nonproducing stay at homers who refused to go back to the office. IMO.
What's this office you speak of? You think anyone gets offices anymore?
@@abark an office doesn’t necessarily mean everyone gets their own. 😂
He just wants attention like get a job sir you have a degree or have a experience but he just wants to cry a River
I see why he got laid off he smart but doesn’t have confidentl and look for hand outs on jobs
