Thousands of layoffs in April | |
Phennommennonn Forum Administrator 05/04/2012 01:14 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Pa State won't extend unemployment benefits [link to www.wfmz.com] political correctness is a doctrine.... fostered by a delusional, illogical minority...... and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media; which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end. |

Relativity User ID: 5441581 United States 05/04/2012 01:22 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | April has set a record for job layoffs... Quoting: ~Jay~ 60,000+ got layoff notice [link to www.dailyjobcuts.com] Did you lose you job in April??????? hows the job market in you area???? I live in Oregon. City Government just laid off a lot of people...more than I have seen in 15 years. “In finding balance between lies and trust there will never be a better source than to speak your truth or make your peace some other way.” ~Sully Erna Many that live deserve death.

If you dont have a job your fucked because your not going to get one unless you have TONS of experience and willing to take a HUGE pay cut and work for next to nothing... With crappy benefits and nowhere near 40 hours a week.... Gun control is like trying to reduce drunk driving by making it tougher for sober people to own cars. I'd like to go quietly in my sleep, like grandpa did. Not screaming in terror like the people in the back seat of the car he was driving. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1579668 United States 05/04/2012 02:48 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I live in Northern California, one of the worst states in terms of being hit hard by the recesssion. the unemployment rate is higher here than in most part of the country. We have an indian casino about 3 miles from our house and every time I go in there the place is absolutely packed to the max - you can't find an empty machine or table anywhere. There are other casinos in the area as well and they are always crowded. If the economy is so bad, you would never know it, as there are thousands of people around here that have enough disposable income to throw it away gambling. |

I have 3 years clean from a compulsive gambling addiction....those casino's are the only buisness profiting from this shitty economy. everyone is "chasing the big win" its rather sad, i feel its the next epidemic, although its also the best kept secret. |
