And a Merry F$#%%^&^ Christmas to your company. Although, in some ways, I bet it could be looked at by those that have been let go, as a blessing to know what their short term future is. The timing however, sucks huge. I hope they didn't go out and charge a whole bunch of stuff for Christmas on credit. You never know, they could go out and find better jobs. For you though, in some ways you probably feel guilt, relief and dread, all at the same time. I remember, waaay back when I was a younge guy. going into work and being told a bunch of guys were being laid off, all with more seniority than me, ( it was a "Union Shop" ) I was the Union Steward and called up the boss, and asked what's going on, and was told, "I need to see you too"..... However, it wasn't at Christmas time, and within two weeks I ended up getting the job I have know, which ended up being a much better job than I had.
