3. My experience
I posted on another thread that my husband and I went to a lunch on Saturday for retirees and current employees of the company that my husband used to work for. The company employed engineers and computer people.

There were about 40 people at the lunch. 3 retirees that we talked to had an adult child living at home because they had lost their job. A number of the people there were being laid off and by next year a company that used to have several hundred employees will be down to 12.

One woman commented that life is pretty good IF you have a job.
