Reply #55: My brother-in-law is losing his job the end of Jan [View All]

[Cookie wookie]

16 years with MCI aka Worldcom aka MCI as a LAN/WAN engineer. They're giving him 4 months severance. He and my sister are coming back home to Georgia and moving in with me next week and he'll telecommute until the job runs out while he looks for work here. I'm worried about them, but glad I have room and can help out.

They lost all their retirement savings when Worldcom went belly up. Just to think that he survived all the cutbacks and downsizing through all the Worldcom mess and finally they decided to pretty much downsize to nothing in D.C.

This weekend I'd better clean house. I've spent the last I don't know how long (almost 2 years) on politics and the place has gotten a bit trashy.
