What to say to your friend who was recently laid off


These scripts should serve as a guide for tough, trying, and tremendous life moments.

We’re here to support you in supporting your people. We’re proud of you. And we’ve got you.

Here’s what to say when you don’t know what to say.


Oh my sweet friend, I am here for you, and I understand how difficult this must be for you. Remember that you are not alone. I and so many others love you and know what a big blow this feels like. You are strong and resilient and I believe in you. Let me know how I can help! Do you want me to send you jobs in a few days? Or just cute puppy pics? I'm here day or night, just a text away. I know it feels like a lot right now, so I'll check in soon to see how you're doing.


Text these scripts, email them, leave them as a voicemail, or as the basis of a phone call or conversation in person. These scripts can be used over and over and across all platforms. We hope they help. We want to support you so that you can support your people.
