Hi Dave. That sucks methinks. I cannot say how it is in US of A, but in Israel your severance package (right term?) would be enormous. The law has it that if a worker is fired he is to get a full (I repeat - full), monthly payment for each year he worked for the company. That's why they cannot privatize our Electric Company for example. They will have to fire some people but it will be huge sums of money.
Be strong and I do hope that this change is actually for your benefit. Boris David J Brooks wrote: > Well, the chat with the big boss finally happened today.
