Job loss…
By Sasha on Dec 5, 2008 in Community issues, Society at large
I’ve been reading PerezHilton.com and I saw his several posts on laying off hundreds of employees at MTV, NBC, and so many other media companies. Worse, AT&T is reportedly cutting off 12,000 jobs (roughly 4% of their staff). Oh when will this end?
I know most of us have found ourselves without a job at one point in our lives. It’s hard. Finding that new job, even if you have the right skills and experience, is twice as hard as coping with the loss of a job. Let’s just hope these people will have something to tide them over until they get a new job.
What are your plans this weekend? Be safe and happy!
I am an accountant, a CPA. I'd been working for 10 years as a corporate rat when I decided to quit. I am now working at home as a consultant and full time blogger.

Sadly my plans for the weekend is trying to line up some work. I freelance so I haven’t been laid off but everyone is pulling back on work. This is a scary time. Love your blog!

Hey Sasha, it’s sad and very scary. To make matters worse, it’s happening around the holidays. What a shame.
Hope you’re doing well.

Hay, sana hindi mangyari sa asawa ko, paano nalang kami. Meron akong friend, yung husband nya 15 years na nagtatrabaho pero na layout pa rin dahil losing daw ang company.
