Wow, this is not good news for my brother or sister in law. Especially for my brother, he works at one of the land line switching stations. My sister in law is in management so I don’t know how this will affect her.

It is not shaping up to be a good 2009 for the Gravitycrash clan, especially as I mentioned in another thread if Ford goes under my parents will be screwed.

  • my employer laid off 7% of the workforce today. Nobody from my team, but I’m beginning to think my luck may run out eventually.
