we had a big meeting at work today and they are firing 18 people in my department. they are doing it nicely and asking for volunteers and if they don't get 18 volunteers they will start at the bottom of the seniority list and go up until they have 18. i will not be losing my job in this round but it just makes me so sad for the people who will. some of these people i know very well and have worked beside for years. some of these people are single moms. how will christmas be merry or bright when they have to pack up their desks on dec 15th and face the fact that they have no job.
sorry guys no happy blog today, my heart is too heavy.
i heard about this from one of my co-workers. she said one of her sisters is in the few 18 chosen. such a horrible time to do this, especially right before the holidays. too sad.
ReplyDeletei remember last year when they rifted eight teachers from Miles. it was tough. many of them with young children. i guess nothing is permanently ours in this world, except Christ.
