Margin called on eth futures during my own farewell party at my old job

My farewell party was supposed to be one of those moments you remember for the right reasons.

There was cake, a speech from my manager, the usual jokes about staying in touch.

Then my phone buzzed. Notification from Bitbns. Margin ratio. Not good.

Quietly stepped out while everyone assumed I needed a minute because I was emotional about leaving. Technically not wrong, just wasn't emotional about the job.

Spent the next few minutes watching an ETH futures position fall apart. When I walked back in, people smiled, patted me on the shoulder, "Take care yaar, we'll miss you."

Meanwhile all I could think was that my severance wasn't the biggest number that disappeared that afternoon.
