Hiding a layoff from the family, bad idea? after 15 years as a welding apprentice

My spouse does not know yet that I was let go as a welding apprentice. I do not usually post, so bear with me. I feel ashamed even though the company cut a whole team. What did you say?

I told my partner the same evening with a simple plan: what happened, what I was doing and what I needed. It was a relief.
