Sorry you were fired. Keep looking and find something fun to do while you job search.

I have 25 years of professional work experience from hospitals, universities, Fed government, local government, non profits and private sector.

Private sector is some bullshit for black people unless you really are charismatic, savvy and stacked paper. At will firing is too easy and too common.

Local and Fed government are great for security but terrible for creativity, fun, new ideas and thinkers. Be prepared to die on the vine if you can make it to retirement.

Non profits are awesome if the funding is solid and the mission is clear.

For EVERY job, learn your HR manual or know someone in HR. Talk to the older folks. Stack your retirement fund religiously. Get all the training and benefits out of every job. Don't be the black entertainment. Let people wonder about you. Don't divulge every damn thing about your identity at work. Leave the individuality until after hours. Try to keep boundaries at work. Produce, perform and don't complain.Go get a side hustle.
