Today my company layed off about 1/3 of the staff. They were all support people, which made them the "easiest" to get rid of - if that can even be a statement. Just really puts a damper on this already gloom day. I know they will all land on their feet - I did - twice. Yet it is still hard to see them all go. Even harder to feel secure when something like that happens by surprise. I guess this is a "benefit" of having a corporate office.
Personally, this will all just add to my stress and work load, but I am trying to be optimistic. Ironically, we just hired a new guy (go figure) who starts on Monday, so we will see how that goes. As one of my friends joked, maybe this new guy just needs that much room.
Here's to change, right?!?
