At least you have 5 days to drive to every business you know and look for work. That's what I did and it wasn't long before I was hired. Try going to your competitors first.

On a Monday? That sucks/is an interesting management choice.



That actually makes more sense than a Friday to me.

At least the people who got laid off can immediately start the job hunt as opposed to having a full weekend to stew about it while not being able to do shite about it.

Oh, and ....

Do you have a degree? I was just informed that if you have a degree in gender studies that you'll make more than an air traffic controller.

You know how not to get fired from a Sales job? Sell lots of shite


Nope. Inside sales/support usually get laid off because the Outside sales team isn't doing their job.

This. For me I had resumes printed and out the door by 10 to start the search. The longer you wait the more chances you give your "team" to take the job you need. Survival of the fitness out there.
