Can you tell? Does it show?

So I lost my job - my position was eliminated. Due to a downturn in business. Nothing personal and I get that. But it's hard to take any way.

Today, after I left outplacement, I went grocery shopping and I noticed a couple of men who were dressed professionally and were probably on their way home after work.

I felt self-conscious. Like they could tell I didn't have a job. Was it because I kept picking up items and checking the price and re-shelfing them? Could they read my mind? I looked over my shoulder a couple of times to see if they were looking. Am I wearing a big red E on my chest? Is there an arrow over my head pointing at me?

C'mon motivation and positive thoughts. Come and get me.
