ParticipantSDR,
Sorry to hear about things with AMCC. I knew someone who worked there for quite a while. Best of luck in this nutty Economic time.
Flu, sounds unfortunate, but also sounds like you’ve gotten a heads up, and maybe that will make all the difference in the world.
My wife has been unemployed for about 4 months now. Getting unemployment going was difficult – she had to resort to sending in her weekly reports via registered mail to make sure they responded.
Concern is that in a few months, there may not be any money to pay out for unemployment.

Didn’t Kate break up Peter’s current marriage? So in a way isn’t she the haribringer of “doom”?

February 1, 2009 at 9:22 AM #339642Participant[quote=flu][quote=nostradamus]Flu what? Removing some organs? I hope you’re OK![/quote]
Hijack.
I will actually. I probably mistyped. My being bedridden is temporary. A few months. I should live a normal life thereafter. Fortunately, the human body either has two of something, or you’d be surprised what you don’t need. Doctors can tell you the same thing….My procedures is preventative, though I use to think preventative treatment was popping a few pills or getting more exercise. Actually, I’m pretty lucky. I caught this right in time. I think my primary care physician did some major misdiagnoses for some time, which is another story. Lesson learned, if your primary physician can’t find a clue, see a specialist right away.Anyway, back on topic, jobs come and go, and so to professions, big deal. And employers are having a field day on this, even the ones that are still profitable. That said, I see promising things in the medical field. What you can do with genetic testing and technology is pretty amazing these days, as I’m learning. They just got to make this stuff more affordable for more people, which is sort of an geek challenge in itself. I wouldn’t count technology out just yet. [/quote]
FLU,
didn’t know about your situation. I think I post for a lot of people when I say best of luck and get well soon. I just hope that what they are removing isn’t one side the of brain! We pigs continue to follow the good work you do! :p
Again, get well soon!
