no customers, who knew
Congressional subpoenas on the way in 3...2...1...
Think of it as job security for those still left and doing the work of at least 3 people who were let go.
0bummernomics.
just spoke to a friend. Her company has a fair amount of turnover. If they hire the unemployed, they get a tax break and do not have to pay the employer-portion of the unemployemtn tax. Under the Regimes new plan.
The paperwork is complex and with numerous hoops. The company is evaluating whther it is worth taking up the offer. They are leaning towards, not worth it.
We’re hiring....mostly some we laid off in May of ‘09 in a stupid move....
But, we are hiring.
The Cash for Houses tax giveaway ends this month. That should mean an end to house sales for awhile.
I know of nobody that is planning on doing any hiring.
Many companies cut to the bone to survive and they find that profit can go up without hiring. The principle of diminishing returns is working right now, and the recession will not be over until they are in need of hiring new people.
Businesses are going Galt. I think that is wise.
hehe... wait until the health insurance companies start going belly up
Well, the economists have declared the recession over but apparently businesses and consumers didn’t get the message.
It’s almost as if they were stopping the motor of the world...
Last October, the parent company of my wholly owned subsidiary let us know they were shutting us down in 2010. Over 800 people will have lost their jobs when we close our doors for the last time.
I am quite fortunate to have found another job. My last day at the old job is this Friday and my new job starts on Monday. Pay is very close to what I was making previously. I know in no uncertain terms that I am an exception rather than the rule. Companies that you depend on for job openings, just aren’t hiring or only have a few openings with hundreds of applicants for each position.
I plan to do my part by spending my tax return ASAP.
economy bump for later...........
Today’s tax return .. Tomorrows tax liability

“The paperwork is complex and with numerous hoops. The company is evaluating whther it is worth taking up the offer. They are leaning towards, not worth it.”
Just remember the cash for clunkers debacle. Just before they shut down hundreds of dealership. Making deals with the devil never work out as advertised.
