Is the company RM? If so, getting a severance doesn't surprise me. They're an excellent group of people and most certainly tried hard to not lay her off.

I don't blame them. Thailand has never been a part of China!


My mistake. I meant Taiwan.

Like I said, moving the printing to a Chinese company wasn't very smart.

Maybe she can go find one of those millions of jobs that are currently unfilled. Perfect time to be looking for a new job that doesn't rely on China raping us with unfair trade barriers

I know one dude who lost it for similar reasons, although he did stuff in Ag and not textiles.

Sorry to hear that brother but the good news is the job market is thriving and I bet she will find a better job in no time!

FWIW. The best way to do it is to make enough so that your wife doesn’t have to work.
