Well -   I have just learned that my company has layed off 11staff members that report to our Dallas Location.

3 technical staff members (claim adjusters)
8 clerical people -   between Houston office, Little Rock, Office and New Orleans Office

fortunately -  there was no one impacted right here where I am in Dallas office !!!


They are NOT calling it a "Layoff" ......but a stragic realignment...........

CALL IT WHAT YOU WILL................11 people are now unemployed with severence etc - and I know that they are being taken care of.   They were given a 30 day  NON-WORKING notice so that they could chill out so to speak and reflect on what has just happened to them.   

WOW !!

Have a GREAT Day !!

  Phyllis, are you still working more than one job?  

  I really think that is a smart idea, esp. in this bad economy of late, b/c ya just never know ...    (of course, chit can still happen to everything  --  my poor brother lost BOTH his jobs in May ..   )
