I've just found out I am being made redundant from a small local authority in the north of Scotland. Im 46 years old, main breadwinner in the house and now I'm not sure what to do. Not sure I can retrain and scared my career has been stunted through a lack of development due to continued budget restraints.
This exact same thing happened to me last month in the same industry… and I fortunately managed to find a new job pretty quickly and it’s so much better. I like to think being made redundant was a blessing in disguise tbh because I’m so much happier 😊 honestly you’ll find something even better!
AI do be scary indeed. I was made redundant yesterday from a job I also really enjoyed. They haven’t said AI stole my job but it was only 6 months since they introduced it. Unfortunately I’m 45 and I’m uncertain what I’m going to do going forward. Thankfully I have a payout so I should be OK for 3-4 months but I have a wife and 2 kids to support as well as a mortgage. Anyway, I’m scared, apprehensive, frustrated and nervous about the next few months.
Me too! I went throght the same experience, and did all that you have done! I am so sorry for everyone that has to go through this, it is a horrible experience. It is a blessing in disguise. Looking back at it now, its the best thing that could have happenend. I have learnt my lessons and have a fresh perspective on life and how I approach things next.
Hey luke! Remember it's okay! You can still have fun as a redundant like you said. Change the way you think about it. Make it like your "Long Holiday Rest"! We need that💕 stay strong!! We need more of ur contents!💪🥳🙌🏻
Ive just been made redundant and I feel awful. I hope you managed to find a new job. I am trying to get myself back into having a positive mindset and it’s hard.
I just been made redundant recently after a year and 5 months with a cosmetics manufacturing company in Ireland. It sucks azz to find work and it was my first job (hated it anyway).
Hope you're found the right job and got your life back on track. Loving the positivity in the video, you have just smile and start taking actions, get busy.
I was made redundant in 2018. After being told myself and my colleagues were being made redundant, I finished my shift and drove home to update my CV. The good news I found a new role a few months later and had some great adventures in the meantime.
I'm so sorry you've gone through that pal. It must be a shock but you seem an intelligent lad and I'm sure soon you’ll bounce back. I really enjoy watching your videos because they help me to know I'm not on my own. Just try to not to be to hard on yourself and good luck with your next endeavour. 🙏
Hey Luke! I know it's a bit difficult. But you've got the talent to look for a better job. I am also jobless now, just resigned last Dec 31 not knowing that my online client would suddenly left me too (but he's been good, just perks of having no contract for the job at all). Adding the pain of my laptop being crashed after the project. I'm grieving also. But after this, I'll take step up because I know we can rise after what happened.
I just came across your page as I'm picking up content writing, and you have been such an inspiration. I can't wait to see you bounce back. Also, cool stuff, I'm a screenwriter and with a degree in theatre as well. I hope to see your progress soon, and I'd share mine overtime. Stay strong!
So sorry this happened. This happened to me in July 2023. I am thankful I got a job quickly after being made redundant. My new job is so much better. I wish you all the best.

Hey Luke, I am sorry for what happened to you. I know you can overcome this. Just want to let you know that you have got yourself a loyal subscriber. I just found you through "Canon 700D Video", and I really like your videos.
Please can you advise me when I should receive my redundancy payment from my employer , I was made redundant 2 jan 2024. I have not received my redundancy settlement the claim was done on 12 jan 2024. Thank you.
Everything happens the way it is meant to & you'll land on your feet again in a bigger and better role. Try not to see it as a set back but as an opportunity for growth.
Me and my partner work together and the company has announced they are getting rid of most of us. Thats both our incomes in one go. We will know if we're jobless within 20 days. Terrified
Hope you are doing ok, stressful time. Might this be an opportunity to throw everything at freelance digital marketing rather then getting back on the hamster wheel?
keep going bro ur v skilled and also cool personality so keep up ya channel - ya fiverr etc - omg - was it cos of AI???? dfQ?! in life AND Work - Be recession and AI proof as much as can be foreseeably possible - Note to my self
I was watching shorts on TH-cam - it lead me to a video of you saying you've moved to Blackpool - and that's where I live. I've built up somewhat of a local following so had a look at some of your content with a view to seeing more about you. I've found that you've since gained employment with a local company that seems to be going places and for that I congratulate you - I think you've made a smart move. I sent you a friend request on Facebook because I'd like to speak to you a little more about Marketing... I think you're one of the few people in a 25 mile radius that can understand what I'm cack handedly trying to build... You come across really well on video - I'm already invested in your story and I've subscribed. I hope we can talk more about marketing ideas (Y)

I was made redundant last month and still looking for a job. It feels weird not doing anything other than going back to job searching.
Ive just been made redundant and I feel awful. I hope you managed to find a new job. I am trying to get myself back into having a positive mindset and it’s hard.
Much love my brother!! You'll bounce back I know it! If you need anything I'm here!
Thank you so much 😊
I just got made redundant because of customer closures hearing because I try support my family but I won’t give up onto the job search
Hey Luke! So sorry this has happened to you! It must be so scary and surprising! I know what a great guy you are! Please keep strong :)
Thanks man ☺️ It means a lot
Grieving is a great description. I definitely felt I was grieving too.
Definitely feels like that. Like it’s been pulled from under my feet and I’m missing something I previously had

6 years later let’s hope you reach a million subs ❤️
That would be incredible 💪
Hope you are doing ok, stressful time. Might this be an opportunity to throw everything at freelance digital marketing rather then getting back on the hamster wheel?
I’m not qualified enough to be freelance yet, but would love to one day
I think you were naive about thinking you would never be made fired. I have been fired 3 times shit happens, bounce back😊
Good luck, man.
Thank you 😊

Why the crap redundant intro music ? Some of us are noise sensitive and that was bothersome.
Good luck sir !
