I get work through my skilled trades union. We're constantly getting hired onto jobs and laid off when the work is complete. Jobs can last 1 shift, up to a few months, or even years. Getting laid off is a time for celebration after being on the job for a while.
And for completing your segment of the work. A worthy celebration indeed.
