It's not the first article I read on HN about an upcoming recession. This is for sure self-centered but the questions I end up asking myself are mainly how it'll affect my life and career.
Questions like if there was a recession tomorrow would I still be able to apply at a cushy well-paid faang job or if it is even smart to switch job now since the newer you are the more likely your are to be cut off if there is a need for downsizing.
I've never lived through a recession as a working individual hence why the prospect makes me nervous. I figure that, over the course of one's life, one goes through a few of them and that (mostly) everyone seems to make it out ok but if someone has some insights to share I'll be grateful.
