I am not sure what the job market is like in Canada, but I hope that you find something. Good luck!

Anticipated/unanticipated?
What happened?
And, as always, best of luck - it sounded from your earlier posts like things were a little tight. If you need help, you know who to turn to.

Sorry to hear....
.....not a good time, but perhaps you will get some rest?
I have a feeling I'm close to being un-installed so I'm trying
to get a jump on things. No luck so far.... Such is life......
Good luck, Jack!

Best wishes to you and yours. I'm sure things will work out better in the end; they usually do.

Good Luck
we just had another round of layoffs here. Our sales have dropped quite a bit since December - one of our better customer's demand has dropped to 15% of what it was in December. While we have been working on diversifying our income, it's better to raise up the other numbers than to drop the bigger ones :-(
The IS department hasn't been hit yet. Our network guy left in December. We were looking to replace him but then the sales started to drop. We've only 3 people, the manager(and programmer), myself(programmer/edi), and the pc(and now network) guy. We're getting ready for a move to a new facility in which IS is playing a big part.
The PC guy and I suspect that once we've moved, then IS will be fair game if there's another round of layoffs. We've also considered the possibility that IS was hit with a layoff, but it has been delayed due to the move. Needless to say, I've dug up my resume and have been getting it up to date. Our move is scheduled for the weekend of the 17th, so I'll be putting out some feelers. I don't want to leave, I really like working here, but figure it's best to have options ready.

How are you doing?
Any leads yet?
Was it downsizing?

No, they fired me.
Don't ask. I could probably fuck them over for wrongful dismissal, but I don't think I'm going to bother. Other than that, it doesn't matter that much to me: I'm kind of glad to be out of there; the work was pretty boring. So today, I'm working on an auto website indexing program written in Object REXX. It's going to pick up the index info from specialty meta tags... Hey, it helps to pass the time... ;)
