We had a layoff at work today.

I'm on medical leave right now so I don't know if I got the axe yet or not. My buddy called me and told me some of the people they let go. They targeted higher dollar workers that had been there over 20 years mostly. It is profits over people at any cost these days. ANY cost.

1. Does that mean a reduction in the need for missile parts?

I hate to see people lose their jobs, but I'm looking for a silver lining.

2. Actually our quality is below par

to say the least. The quantity shipped is what the upper people's bonus was based on. The quantity returned for bad quality is never even tracked. It has been slower lately, so maybe they have stockpiled enough for a while. That would be nice if there was less killing in the world. It's a sad state of affairs when people have to die so others can make a living.

3. You said it.

They don't even track returns? What kind of shitty management is that?

5. Heh...gotcha.

I hope you weren't laid off - I hope you survive there until you get going in your next career.
