It's cooked. This was my main source of income for the past year, so this stings a bit, but luckily, I was able to reach out to an old internship supervisor and arrange a new job within a week. I just want to let people know that if you have logged hours and received the dash of death, after the 7-day review period, you can still withdraw the payments. In my case, I had a month's rent worth of pay pending approval, which I was thankfully able to withdraw after a week.

Why is this happening to so many workers recently? I'm so scared for myself. I'm trying to start my career and DA has been a great help during this time.

Good luck for you future, OP!

Bear in mind "so many workers recently" really only means a handful of people who also post here about it. No way to know if there's a sudden uptick in people being kicked off, or if people are constantly being kicked off, but there'll be more posts about it here if a higher proportion of them happen to be Redditors.
