It was a very emotional and sad day at AKC today as I know of 19 people and 5 were in my department that were let go this morning.
They are not finished yet so I am not sure I have dodged the bullet yet.
No rhyme and no reason as to how they chose the ones who were let go.
I would have thought it would have been the older people that would have accepted a retirement package like me but most of the people were young people and a lot of them were single moms
For those of you who know sknott4 on the boards she works at AKC also but she was not let go today so she is safe like me for the time being. 1|1|I'm so sorry to hear this Betty, seems like this time of year the layoffs hit and I just feel so bad for all the families involved, my prayers are with them all (((HUGS)))~*~|RebekkaVA|queen_vulture@msn.com|18:35:12|12/07/2011|

This is sensitive time of year for those w/out jobs & for those who live in fear of losing their jobs.
Smile... it makes people wonder what you're up to!
Please identify yourself in 1st email w/name/username. Due to recent problem trades, if I haven't traded w/you before, I will probably require you send your end 1st or I'll need LEGIT trade references/feedback. I will be happy to provide the same. IF you plan to hold your end til you've received mine, I will need to know that IMMEDIATELY, BEFORE trade is finalized.
