Well I got my lay off notice
Yesterday. The VP said I did really excellent work and he'd like to keep me but there was no money to budget for it. My last day is December 5.

Thanks, Bush!

2. I'm sorry to hear that. Did you get a reference letter from the V.P.?
I would ask her/him to write a letter of recommendation or something to help in your search for a new position. Unfortunately I think there will be many people going through this in the next year, our economy is headed for a major problem & nobody will be able to prevent it. The cards were dealt over the past eight years & now we have to play the hand.

5. Geesh, there's been a lot of layoffs lately.
I'm so sorry... use your energy now to update your resume and get right to it... start calling folks! My husband has gone through two layoffs in the last couple of years.

7. I'm sorry to hear
Your furbabies will like it that you're at home but I'm sure you're anxious to get out there and share your talents with the world. Good luck.

8. So sorry to hear that. My son had two layoffs in three years. Look everywhere.
Surprisingly, the ad for the job he landed last February was in the classifieds of the newspaper--not posted on-line! So, don't forget to check print classifieds, too.

Good luck. We'll all be holding good thoughts for you.
