Today we find out which of us admins will be let go.

Or that's what they told us last week.

It's nearly four now... I wish they'd just get it over with.

1. I'm voting EarlG

[redqueen]

2. Hah...

nice one.

There's only 8 of us. This is nerve-wracking.

3. Oh, it was written like the admins were a different group

Good luck! :thumbsup:

[redqueen]

4. Oops...

thanks.

This day seems so very long already.

[trof]

5. Yeah, everybody's cutting back.

;-)

[redqueen]

6. Yep...

we've lost a few people from this office already. Same as the other sales offices. Now they're going through the process of closing entire offices I think, we'll see.

[trof]

8. I apologize. Seriously.

I thought this was a tongue-in-cheek about DU admins.
Didn't realize you were serious.
I'm very sorry.
:-(

[redqueen]

9. Oh, it's ok... you didn't do anything to apologize for...

just a little winky smiley... but that's really nothing.

I took no offense, but thanks just the same.

11. I feel like an absolute dork.

I was laid off three times during my career.
There was not a damn thing funny about it any of those times.
And they always seemed to come at the worst times in our lives.

First one was when my wife was 7 months pregnant.
No more health insurance.
We damn near lost the house.
A good friend (VERY good as I then found) lent us the money to tide us over until I could find another job.
I was able to pay the loan back, but I STILL owe him.

Hoping for all the best for you.
:-)

7. i think it's bullshit how they make people walk around on eggshells for weeks

btdt and, although i'm stressed about being out of work, i'm glad i'm not dealing with that situation.

10. I think my boss thought he was being nice.

He said he was giving us a 'heads up'. Which I'd have thought was unnecessary in this economic climate, but the responses from a couple of the admins showed that wasn't the case.
