I walked into work this morning and about 20 of us received this.”
I am sorry this has happened to you.
You do not indicate what kind of skills you have.
Contact me in private messaging. I might have some ideas for you.
I am thinking that you are just the beginning of a flood. Companies are going to be sharpening their pencils and figuring how they can get down to basics, and not pay Nobama the taxes he thinks he can squander on none workers, and others who just stand with their hands open, expecting someone to pay for their lifestyle.
Mostly middle management. Goodness knows the vp's presidents and C_O's won't lose their jobs and probably will continue to get their bonuses and perks running to the millions and 18% raises every year.
However, they are cutting some ancillary staff such as food service, housekeeping. I already see some difficulty in getting things done right from my perch directly by the patient rooms.
