View Full Version : Have you been laid off yet?...

Today might be a very sad day for myself (hopefully not) and a few other 100's of co-workers. We've been bombed with rumors that layoff are happening today. A few websites have confirmed that yes this is all true. Our company hasn't even come out and told us of anything but yet other insurance carriers are saying when we're calling...

"We heard....today is going to be a sad day for you guys."

We're like WTF! Our own company hasn't even come out and said something.

Today is a bloody HELLISH of a day. I need a drink!

Anyone else in my boat? Anyone want to vent like me?...

That is pretty screwed up! I got laid off in the last week of January... What sucked was that in December after a pretty big round of layoffs, my boss gathered the whole IT department into his office for a meeting to tell us that he would let us know as soon as he heard about any future layoffs big or small, if it affected us in the least - so that we could get our resumes ready, start looking for a new job, etc.. Except, he didn't. But, he did have time to tell my manager.

I work for a very strong company and we had 5% reduction a week ago. I don't want to stress you out, but they won't tell you in advance, because you have access to sensitive computing systems. If you were to wig out you could cause serious damage. Usually someone would come to your desk, ask you to gather your things and escort you out of the building. It seems cold, but things are done a certain way for a reason.

Don't spend too much of your life thinking about anything out of your control. It's really a profound waste. Whatever decisions have been made are made. If your time is up, now might be a good time to go back to school to extend your skill set. I don't mean to be alarmist, but I think this is only the beginning of a fiercely more competitive era. Or consider starting your own business. You have both cooking and photography skills. What about catering or photography for weddings and the like? Just an off the cuff idea. Stay hopeful, optimistic, work hard and you'll be fine. :thumbs_up:

Thank you Ben for your kind advice. I am trying to stay positive but it's just so frustrating Just when things are going so great...BAM, you get hit with reality. In the back of my head I knew it was coming. We've been strung along for some time now and I knew that we couldn't keep operating with the amount of staff that we have now and the numbers that we're dealing with. 1 person can do the work of 3 right now.

ZexGX, I'm sorry to hear about your position. We're you given a sevrance package? Any job prospects yet? I really could care less if I lost my job (although I hope I don't, since i've been here almost 3 years) it's finding a new one that scares the living bajesus out of me (brand new mortgage payment) Thank goodness for unemployment :)

Also, ZexGX, your situation sounds very familiar to mine. We keep getting company emails, all is ok all is ok, we're just cutting back, no raises, no 401k matching, and so on. Then out of no where....you know what happens.

Ben, I would love to think I could start a business but the things that I would love to get into take a decent amount of start up money. To update my photography equipment (which is desperately needed) would be about 6k, and as for catering, depending on how big I went, some catering equipment would also be necessary. It's just costly but don't get me wrong I would love to do those.

We'll see, I keep you guys posted.

I was full-time hourly as IT but making less than the receptionist (my fault for not asking enough to begin with). They paid out my vacation and that's pretty much it.

Hopefully it doesn't happen! After the group of layoffs that I was in, the remaining employees got a pay cut. If the senior leaders had taken a mild pay cut starting last year then nobody would have had to have been fired.

Three magic letters, OPM. Other People's Money.

You are fortunate enough to have some people within your extended family with resources. You might be surprised how willing they would be to support you IF you have a business plan, including loan payback schedule. This is a great way to do things because it helps concentrate resources in the family, which is nice when it can work. You could also probably get a far better rate than any personal loan etc. Bottom line, don't hold yourself back because of a little money (and $6k really isn't much considering you have immediate cash flow potential, unlike a website :sm_up_there:). This isn't to be confused with easy, just that it's very reasonably possible. Be bold with the hand your dealt. :thumbs_up:

I understand completely. Just wanted to know what company, to check with a couple of Insurance people I know on the possible lay offs. I know it is tough to wait for the ax to fall. "Hope for the best -expect the worst". I always hated that quote.

Ben's advise is pretty good--even though it came from Ben.:p

In about 2 minutes or so we will be getting an email from our CEO stating there will a reduction in force.

We've already rec'd word that one of our sups has been let go. (she actually was out of the office today at 1pm for her parent teach conf with her kids).

After that our manager will be pulling the people into her office 1 by 1 that are being let go.

So far, 1 sup that has been her 10+ years, and 3 others from our dept of about 30.

OMG.....

She's still pulling people.

Don't know why you were worried Alexis, companies tend to hold on to their more intelligent employees. :D Unless it's a really big company and the lay offs are truly random. Then you just be f'd in the a.


When I was working at BestBuy I was def the best salesman they had. Some of you may laugh at first glance but a Best Buy TV salesman pulls in an average of $10K a day. On my best day I did $47K... K meaning... thousand! Anyways, point in case I showed up late, called in sick, gave my supervisor lip everyday, took lunches without notifying anyone and I took them whenever I wanted to and never did what I was told. A few people were fired when I was working there, but I never received a write up or so much as a talking to. Employees there are required to wear a headset to communicate with the managers if they are the only one in the dept. I never did. When my sup asked me to, I told him "no" he said, "but you have to" I said... "no, sorry."

When the managers asked me to work truck (unloading merch.) I said... "no, that's not what I was hired to do." But everyone loved me.

If you're good at what you do, and you take the important parts of your job seriously, you should be ok.


BTW, Home Depot and Sport Chalet have been firing people at will, looking for any excuse. So if you work for a big retailer that's hurtin, punch that clock 5 mins early and pucker your butt cheeks when the boss walks on by.

Thank you guys again for your kind words and thoughts. My lucky stars were looking out for Sean and I today. We were told that this should be enough to keep us level and no talks about more layoffs are in order.

Yes a backup plan is something I do need to give more thought to. I have thought about it but never thought I would actually have to seriously use.

I'm finally starting to relax a little bit but tomorrow we'll be picking up some MAJOR work and files.

Just very thankful tonight. I don't wish this upon ANYONE. It's horrible the way they did it but I know why they did.

The best backup plan is one you never have to use. But you'll be way more calm if you have one and things go badly. Same for disaster preparation (earthquake, etc.). Having at least some idea of what you would do chills you out, which is as important as anything else.

BTW, I let your lovely husband borrow a great book: "Before You Quit Your Job."

Since you still have your gig, your hand isn't forced. This book is great for helping you think about not working for someone else. It's practical and to the point, with many colorful stories, not a bunch of boring minutiae. It would be good further preparation for a backup plan, or just a different life plan.

I'm flattered and honored. And while I'd love to take possession, I'm hoping you stick around a bit longer. Nobody else around here says things like, "I don't need quality in my thinking, I need naked."

I plan to be around for a while yet. BUT, my mom had three Cancer operations. All three Cancers were of a different type. Hey, just want to be sure things go as I want.:drink:

Well, get your screenings. A lot of them (not all) are very treatable easily if they are caught early. It really is a different world now in many ways compared to the olden days when nearly any cancer was a borderline death sentence. Anyway, it's good to be prepared. You never know when you might have an unfortunate fall in a public rest room . . . or something like that. :sm_up_there:

Don't listen to him Glenn! He didn't give you plan, because his plan is to put it in a crusher! Oh the humanity! Only I can give it a proper home. :thumbs_up:

Well the 5 year unlimited modifications seems a good value for the extra 30 bucks. To be honest, I haven't done this yet myself and I really should. But this is the service I'd use. I've known several people who have used it and said it was great.
