Greg's this behavior of uncertainty is truly justified, as he has news of big lay offs in the country and especially in his city where he works. He is also uncertain about what exactly his boss thinks about his work because his boss sometimes says good about his work and sometimes says worst. He is totally devastated and has trouble sleeping at night due to overthinking about the lay off wave.

But despite his behavior is justified, he must think positive about his work and should focus more on work rather than sitting and funking at his desk. He should show more good work in these days especially to be in the good books of his boss, otherwise his this shattered behavior will make the decision of his lay off easier for his boss.
