Yeah, hang in there and keep your head down... I was with AT&T Wireless when it was bought out by cingular... they let me go. It was a couple years of hard times, but I'm so much better off now than I was then. Similar to when I left the military... I think for the most part if you do get let go, for the majority of folks... if they want it bad enough, they'll be better off in the long run... just takes alot of work and a certain amount of guts. This is the greatest country in the world... there isn't anything anyone can't do if they are willing to work for it.

What's a pension?

Good luck to you too. I was over at the Tech Center today and drove around the VEC. Saw the TV crews sitting on Van Dyke. I don't work at the Tech Center so maybe they will forget about me.

My dad and I made it through the day without gettin tapped on the shoulder(fired). hope i'm lucky again tomorrow. I saw a co-worker being escorted out and heard of a few more that were asked to leave. Some were friends . I hope they do ok. this really sucks
|
The same thing happened to me when So Cal Edison deregulated. Lots of layoffs and people asked to leave. Funny thing, they kept me long enough to re-train the the older guys they brought down to do my job and let me go a few days before I would be entilted to any sort of retirement. Then they had the balls to ask me to come back 2 years later. Not too cool. Anyway, hope all goes well for you guys involved. |

Glad to hear you are still there fstop but sure wish they would let you know what the hell is going to happen. Does being within a year or two from leaving anyway make you more likely to be offered the package to leave? That is what they are doing right, offering a lump sum to walk away?
