It's been clear for a couple of weeks that our company was probably going to lay some people off.

Today I found out that I was one of those people.

I pretty much had an inkling when my boss booked a last minute meeting with me right after lunch for little to no reason, so it wasn't a complete shock. But still...

On the positive side, this means I can take some time to figure out what I want to do when I grow up. Again.

On the negative side, there's never a good time to be without income.

Anyone need a good technical trainer/video production person?

Sorry to hear that. This stinks and there's no much of it going around.

It's like the companies discovered they can make more money by employing less people --- and they'll work harder because they'll be afraid of losing their job too.

While the rich get richer.

Drag out the guillotine.

I've been ready to man the barricades for a while. This doesn't help.

(The family that owns us? Worth 22 billion. Richest in Canada by a long shot. Grrrr.)
