Please let us know how it works out. And about the dream, did you know or suspect there would be layoffs or did it come out of the blue?
That dream was almost a premonition, Utah. Has anyone had those? I remember the Christian singer Rich Mullins being in my dream one night, awakening to read in the morning newspaper that he had been killed in a car wreck. So, it wasn't a premonition, considering the accident happened the day before, but I certainly hadn't heard about it before I dreamed about him.
Layoffs were a common occurrence at that company. I made it through 15 layoffs in 9 years. It was kind of always on everyone's minds. I was surprised when I was laid off, 13 years and I had just had an evaluation where I ranked in the top 15% of the company. I will deny saying this to anyone I used to work with, but I am much better off since the layoff two years ago.
