Title: Nostradamus surrenders - Monday morning carnage update
Post by: Fuzzy on March 10, 2008, 10:01:35 AM
Well it was a nice run. As foreshadowed here (and proving there is a karmic balance in the universe after reading 'fredo's thread):

http://www.golfhos.com/topic-6972.html

This morning was brutal. In total, 6 of 11 in my part of the division including my boss and former boss. In addition our engineering manager and Asian product support guy are gone to bring the total to 8 that I know of and I did hear a rumor of many more across the company/globe.

And yes, I was one of the 8.   :-\   :sad3:

But it's not like we didn't see this coming for 2 years now. It was just a matter of who won the lottery. The sad thing is that 90 years of industry experience was walked out the door this morning with just us 6 folks. I'm not exactly sure how this will make things better but I'm not as super smart as upper management.  [sm_devil]

The good thing is that I'll have more time now to finish my new spring signature lines of Clive Assless Chaps and Stroh's Super Sensual Fleshlights.

Preach on Reverend Fuzz. I watched 96 years of experience walk out the door with the five guys in my department last year.

Sorry to hear. All I can say is it'll get better, when one door closes another door,  get drunk.

Sorry to hear

At a moment like this, when facing 'the big unknown' of 'career displacement' I consul people to go back and imagine what it was like- fear-wise, facing the unknown-- just before they lost their virginity, and then to reflect on how much they've enjoyed copulation ever since, except maybe for the one or two unfortunate copulations we've all experienced at one time or another and would just as soon forget.

oh yea, and jesus.surrenders

Best wishes.

I have a theory that in the next 10 years, all available jobs in the U.S. are going to involve either marketing or sales of some sort or will be as payday loans cashiers.

[sm_beertoast]  Sounds good.  What is your area of expertise?  We really need programmers and/or data warehousing specialists.

fortunately (well, used loosely) the steadily increasing price of  energy/fuel will effectively kill the rise of physical goods globalization, thus ensuring a return to at least some levels of domestic manufacturing; however, this will come at the cost of increased prices, depressed wages, and who knows what else-  what remains to be seen is which industries in previously 'capitalistic' nations will be nationalized and which countries will strike 1st in the effort to conquer neighbors rich in certain 'resources'

Clearly, I know not what I am doing on the internets chat world or with Assless Chaps  and what is a Fleshlight anyway??   

I will vigorously defend myself from assimilation into Clive-dom.

I've been  :airquotes:downsized :airquotes: twice. The first time was a shock, the second time turned out to be the best thing that ever happened.  Finally ditched korpritmerka and have never been happier.  Good luck in sorting it all out.
