I Got Fired, but My Husband Wants to Keep up Appearances. We Already Bought Flights and Hotels for Multiple Weddings. Should we Cancel?
A woman whose position is being eliminated (with severance through September) wants to cancel pre-booked summer wedding trips to save money, but her husband insists on attending to 'keep up appearances' and tell friends she is seeking a career change. Reddit commenters clarify this is a layoff, not a firing, and advise honesty with her network for job leads. After revealing 8 months of emergency savings and her husband's salary covering expenses, many suggest attending the domestic weddings since flights are already paid, arguing the savings would minimally impact their long-term runway.
