Damn sorry to hear about that... All this outsourcing is pissing me off. I called capital one a few weeks ago, and all i got was an idian woman yelling at me "MR VEAL MR VEAL HELLO MR VEAL."

Sitting around blaming Bush all day won't fix the problem.

Best bet is to hope you are not going to be layed off, and if so just go out and try to find a more stable job.

But yeah..

but yeah man this sucks, even working at a body shop in these times is hard, since people don't want to fix their cars, but i really hope everything works out for you

Thank you MR Bush =D

no smiley needed, it's all true. The war in Iraq is the exact reason our economy is where it's at. We provided other countries with hundreds of millions of US economy and when OUR money leaves OUR country it deteriorates our economy. If you don't like this war, vote Obama, although he's a LOT more left wing than most people think.

Been there, done that. It's really not hard, I had it on lock and I was finishing up my lower bay shit in minutes so I got to sit around in the pit and study the vast majority of the time.

Plus, I was doing front/rear/tcase/grease fittings on my Land Cruiser whenever the hell I felt like it. :rofl:

pretty soon all thats gonna be left is either highly specialized technical positions requiring years of experience and the food industry.

Those who have stable job security should be thankful.

Legal work is probably the only field I know that cannot be outsourced, yet. Soon though globalization will break the language barrier and even lawyers wil be out of work.

08-08-2008, 06:28 PM

Yeah they got rid of alot of my friends what sucks is my buddy and his wife worked there an they got rid of both of them. This was a pretty hard week for me. I went into this job with the idea of not making friends an I kept my distance from people, but the people I work with are truly amazing! When there was a death or if someone needed help everyone came together. I got too know alot of these people on a personal level an tthis past week gave me a really heavy heart. Being I am security I had tooo watch these people leave crying, confused an scared. This really sucks. Please keep the people that lost their jobs in your parys an hope this conutry's situation turns around soon! Godbless an thank you everyone for your kind words!
