The company’s letting go of 9 people this month,

I feel and live your pain.
My company too doesn't want to fully staff our QA department. We have four lines, but only 3 techs, with some shifts left with only 2 techs. We as "leads" could help out more, but management wants us managing.
We need 16 techs across 4 shifts, but we are only budgeted for 12 techs, and somehow we are supposed to catch every mistake by others and ourselves.

Let your boss know that you are only human and ghat you have limits, as we all do.

Girl this happened at my workplace 3 months ago and I've been doing 2 people's work, it won't end well for you, you'd think they'd be understanding of any mistake you make because of all that pressure but no their expectations just keeps getting worse
Don't stay there if it's possible for you to leave :/

.😔 I hate that you get worked so hard

If they can't afford to pay them...then something is going on....

Welcome to the Trump world of tariffs and the fallout that results when foreign countries stop doing business with the USA.

Everything begins to fall in lockstep like dominos across the US economy because every business is affected in some way. It will be decades before trust is reestablished for doing business of any kind with the USA.

That sounds horrible. wtf
