I'm sorry?

I'm not trying to be funny, but I really don't know what any of this means my man.

the company i work for, is broke. (~360AUD million debt)

last week, we got told there isnt any reason to worry about our jobs

today, most people i work are sacked because the company is broke

i feel sad cause i half liked working there
i feel happy cause i half didnt like working there.
