&lt;p&gt;You don&#39;t need me to tell you that David Letterman was a US TV institution—his &lt;em&gt;Late Show&lt;/em&gt; ran for more than 20 years, and was (usually) the second-most-watched late night show in the country.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Since stepping away from the show in 2015, he seems to have been &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.today.com/style/david-letterman-now-bald-bearded-completely-unrecognizable-t82306&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;taking it easy&lt;/a&gt;, but what about the people who worked for him? As the following video from LinkedIn demonstrates, it takes a small army to create an institution like the &lt;em&gt;Late Show&lt;/em&gt;, and when Letterman decided that the end was nigh for him, it meant that time was also up for everyone who worked for him.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you have the 7 minutes to spare, I&#39;d thoroughly recommend watching the full thing—it’s unexpectedly poignant in places, and gives a great sense of how even the most accomplished professionals can experience doubt and uncertainty when they find themselves facing the prospect of finding a new employer.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;iframe width=&quot;595&quot; height=&quot;335&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #CCC; border-width: 1px; margin-bottom: 5px; max-width: 100%;&quot; src=&quot;http://www.slideshare.net/slideshow/embed_code/key/B0ownv0RoKWpqd&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; marginwidth=&quot;0&quot; marginheight=&quot;0&quot; scrolling=&quot;no&quot; allowfullscreen=&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;margin-bottom: 5px;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.slideshare.net/WalterKim1/leaving-letterman-part-ii-life-after-late-show&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Leaving Letterman, Part II - Life After Late Show&quot;&gt;Leaving Letterman, Part II - Life After Late Show&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/strong&gt; from &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.slideshare.net/WalterKim1&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Walter Kim&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;But if you don’t have time for the whole thing, here&#39;s my personal highlight: one of the show&#39;s older former employees, summing up his experiences of coming to terms with his new role in life:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&quot;It&#39;s been exhilarating to be out in the world. This thing that I feared isn&#39;t as ugly as I thought it would be. It&#39;s actually kind of enlightening and it&#39;s part of this whole journey: what can I do next that builds off of what I&#39;ve just done, and will I get the opportunity to do that? And that chapter is yet to be written.&quot;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;How&#39;s that for a little motivation for the rest of your day?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Article image source:&#160;By Hey Paul from State College, PA, USA - Flickr.com - image description page, CC BY 2.0, &lt;a href=&quot;https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=341996&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=341996&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/p&gt;
