17 songs for being laid off or fired

It’s been almost 4 years since I was abruptly laid off from a full-time job in Nashville, Tennessee and after another round of extremely unceremonious layoffs at this same company (lots of these folks I’m still friends with, so I hear about the drama weekly), I decided to do something completely unoriginal. There are plenty of these lists out there, but here’s my Spotify “Just Been Fired or Laid Off” playlist.

Hint: it’s basically all about the song titles. Enjoy!

End Of The Line – Traveling Wilburys

I’m Gonna Miss You – Milli Vanilli

Nobody’s Gonna Rain On Our Parade – Kathy Mattea

Take This Job and Shove It – Johnny Paycheck

Here’s a Quarter (Call Someone Who Cares) – Travis Tritt

Celebrate – Ingrid Michaelson

Eye of the Tiger – Survivor

You Don’t Know How It Feels – Tom Petty

Look What You Made Me Do – Taylor Swift

Delicate – Taylor Swift

Bad Blood – Taylor Swift

We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together – Taylor Swift

Bye Bye Bye – *NSync

I Want You Back – *NSync

Always Remember Us This Way – Laday Gaga

No Tengo Dinero – Los Umbrellos

Achy Breaky Heart – Billy Ray Cyrus
