I lost my job last Friday. These douche bags laid me off 3 weeks before my baby is due. Reason, my contracts expired and the business developers failed to get any new business. I approached them 3 months ago to ask about future business and they assured me I was secure. I requested them lay me off if there was a chance that I would not have a job in the near future. Instead they lied to me and waited until the worst possible time to get rid of me.
OK, enough griping. Thanks for letting me vent. Oh yeah, how do I join the club?

The only think made in the USA are babies and bills. We got to bring back manufacturing and stop outsourcing when we got great talent right here waiting for work! Any company located in the US, selling to the US, should be required to have 80% or more of it's workforce in the US. Money going to India, China, Philippines, etc. is not circulating it's way back here! | | | Re: Unemployed Vanner Van Club | Joined: Feb 2009 Posts: 315 enthusiast | enthusiast Joined: Feb 2009 Posts: 315 | But they keep telling us things are getting better You can tell when they are lying......their lips are moving! Big business has the news media in their back pocket. They tell us that things are getting better just to brainwash us into thinking that it is true. This recession has been coming for 40 years or more. It started slowly with the importing of cheaper products. When big business realized that cheaper labor and cheaper materials meant bigger profits they stampeded elsewhere. Look around and you see empty factories and mills everywhere. And they are still leaving the USA. All that will be left here are burger joints and Walmarts. It's very sad to witness the whole process. Pittsburg, Youngstown, Detroit are just empty shells of what they once were. Wake up people, before its too late. Personally, I think that it is too late. Buy American! (Just my 2 cents!) I agree 100 and 2%!!! I remember the last day the... FORD WIXOM PLANT was open. The difference in traffic the next mornining, or lack of it, was a said feeling. It was Very Sad seeing them take down that, Beautiful "FORD GT" off it's display pole on the roof. Just another sign of these "TUFF TIMES"!!!
