its happening all over the country.
as I predicted months ago, 4Q is going to be bad for jobs. white collar jobs are melting away, corporate america is creating a new business model for themselves that move white collar labor offshore, add this to what we know is happening in manufacturing, and you can see where this is going. if something is not done to break the re-formation of the business model towards offshore labor, some very serious times are ahead.

stay on this thread, the free traders will be along soon to tell you that you were overpaid, that you have "buggy whip" skills, and all the rest.

Just lost my $80K/year engineering position. Must be tough to lose such a good job.
At least you were smart enough to stay debt free and put away plenty of savings.
Too many people I know make good money but save nothing, are in debt, and living hand to mouth.
In today's world people need to prepare for things like this.
