I just found out one of my brothers is now jobless |
|
thanks to outsourcing. Cisco moved him to New Hampshire, then abruptly outsourced that entire division. He's now desperately trying to get certified as a math teacher before his unemployment runs out.
Thanks for the great economy, Shrub, you colossal shithead.

Tax season is over, so time to hit the pavement for me. If I were still in WA, my benefits would have exhausted, and here the approval is pending. The job situation is a neverending hell for too many of us.
Hope he will get that cert soon.

3. Mine worked 19 years for Kodak |

and was notified Friday of the impending adios.
19 fucking years.
As you may imagine, he is feeling quite lost right about now. I am pissed to the nth degree.

19 years is a very long time. I can only imagine how lost he is...
Best of luck to him.

he has a tendency to get wrapped up in self-analysis and sometimes deep depression, so I'm keeping my email-eye on him.
I can't believe those bastards would do something like that. 19 years with not ONE single negative review or write up on his record. In fact, he received numerous bonuses for creativity, etc.
He'll land feet down, but it's going to be a strange ride, I'm sure.
