Chas, I'm sorry this has happened. Good thoughts for you and yours brother. Hang in there.

I feel you pain, my wife and I have both had a 10% cut in pay, so that is a 20% cut on our household income. We are doing better than most, but I can only imagine how hard everyone else is being hit. I hope it turns around soon.

Were all holding our breath and waiting to exhale where I work as well.

The word is that the first round of layoffs will hit around 4500 people in this state and that will most likely be just the tip of the iceberg.

Right now were just waiting to see who gets hit first.

The thing that concerns me the most, is that this time, the hardship is world wide and not just national.

Take care
Ken
