Norris explores the emotional aftermath that follows the loss of a job, delving into the confusion, hurt, and disillusionment that can initially overshadow a person's sense of self.

Norris's compassionate approach provides a guiding light for those grappling with similar situations, ultimately fostering a deeper understanding of the delicate balance between work and self-recognition.
