It can also be a common occurrence and devastating to an individual at the same time. It sucks, and people vent.

I've been in this game a long time and been laid off from about half my gigs. It sucks every time. If it wasn't for the fact that the pay is good and that I like doing it, I probably would've moved to something more stable already.
