Dasm that sucks for both of you.
Been there, done that. I was laid off for 9 months, ended up taking a job with a 60%+ reduction in pay.
Should have nothing to worry about, your fellow AT experts swear the Economy is booming, greenspan saying for the millionth time jobs will be plentiful. He just forgets to add... in India to his sentence.
Ain't it the truth. And more jobs go overseas. I recently read where Levi Jeans is or has closed it's last US plant and moved it overseas. And I'm sure more and more are doing that.
Add to that the "amnesty" plan for illegal aliens, and we are really feeling the squeeze.
They keep moving jobs overseas, and one of these days Corp. America will wake up and realize that all those "consumers" that they depend on to buy their goods can't, because we are all out of jobs or have had to take lower paying jobs to survive, and thus don't have any more spendable income.
