The bottom line

[semperfiona]

34 people laid off.

Hiring freeze to continue.

Wage freeze for everyone with anniversary date after 1 May.

Time off accrual freeze 1 May thru 30 Sept. (That amounts to about 7 days' vacation time at my accrual rate.)

Yikes.

I'm sure that has got to be one of the _worst_ sinking feelings I could imagine. I've had one similar experience...in a restaurant where the ownership had cocaine issues, and they fired the cokies, and all sorts of shit went on...

Hope everything goes all right in the end...I hate to hear about that with anyone.

Ouch. Hold on with all your might, any job is better than no job.

Yikes. I just found out 2 more ppl were laid off in my company's Chicago office. We only have 4 of us in St. Louis. Makes me wonder if looking now is a good thing or foolish thing (maybe I should hang on and be grateful.)
