Their position was ended immediately so they are pushed out the door. But they do have the opportunity to apply for any jobs that are posted and are hiring.

This way if they were fired, then they would take the whole network down. :lmao: Apparently they were scared shitless of this happening everytime they did layoffs because a lot of people did it.
That's funny. I have so much access too it isn't funny. Not like I would do anything like that though. :rick:

Thats true. This position is just a supervisor role in a different area of the company. But I have plans to take that further if I get selected. Now I dont know if it will be the right move though.

I work for a large communications company. Our technology isn't a dying industry at all. Just affected by the bad economy and a recent investment in technology that will soon help drive our company.
