They announced 625 job elimations today and I survived again.  According to the announcement, all that were affected have already been told.  They are going to do another one in the 1st quarter of next year, so I am not totally out of danger.  BUT, I am grateful to have survived yet another layoff in the Aetna world.  A team leader *****ports to my "big boss" was let go and a clerk in my sister's department is gone.  Very close to home, again.  My boss was let go last year.  

Thank goodness I still have a job.

ETA: I have been with the company since I was pregnant with Siehara.. that's 11 1/2 years. This is at least the 6th layoff I have made it through.. praying the luck continues!

Lisa -

This is good news for you.  I'm sure that the waiting has been very stressful for you.

Lisa,

About 8yrs ago I was working at Sprint, I got laid off and moved to another department, worked there 3 months and got laid off again.  I remember the stress.  I had a bunch of family like 15-20 people who worked for Sprint all over the US, I know 2 people who still have jobs.

I am glad you slipped under the radar, and will keep my fingers cross for next year.  This might be a good time to plan for the what if scenario, assuming you are not already.

(fingers crossed)

Glad to hear it!
Instead of complaining that the rosebush has thorns, be happy that the thorn bush has roses.
