A loss is exactly that. If a company can decrease costs by shipping a job somewhere else, why shouldn't they?

Your type of thinking is what's wrong with America today. Sending everything elsewhere cause it's cheaper.

Now I understand that if people are to lazy to do their job then find the work elsewhere, but to ship it where it's cheaper is not the answer. There re so many people out there that do an amazing job but can't find work because they cost too much to employ.

I think we need to take the money away from the damn oil companies and spread it to the other businesses so they can employ good workers.

Layoffs generally occur in large groups. One person was the entire department?

I just think its pointless for you to feel bad about it.

It was a layoff because it was company wide. However, it only affected one member of my staff.

Pointless, eh? Maybe....But it was really great when I found out his wife was just laid off yesterday w/ one of our affiliate companies. They have 3 kids to feed at home- THAT'S WHY I FEEL BAD ABOUT IT.

thats tough RS but tougher for the guy, much tougher and yeah, people should be given warning time. All these loan companies should fricken lend and that would stimulate the market again. Its their silly crazy loan criterie that caused an over boom in the first place.

All markets are depressed and companies are kicking staff, I don't see it getting better till late 2009 so you may have a few more awkward meetings.
