New Jobs Strategy! Layoffs must include execution by firing squad!
I have been unemployed since December after a layoff (A week before Christmas - HoHoHo)

Instead of high unemployment numbers that look bad for both parties, paying out Unemployment Compensation and just dealing with the unpleasantness of it all, I came up with a great strategy!

Instead of laying people off or firing them - Let's have mass executions! Line the minons up against a wall and shoot 'em!

Win Win!

In the long run, sometimes I look back at the thousands upon thousands of resumes I send out, the hundreds of phone and in-person interviews I have had and think I would have been better off.

Yeah, get rid of us lazy unemployed people. Not productive. Our corporate masters are going to kill us one way or another, right?

I'd laugh, but what you and millions of others is going through is NOT funny.
