This Manufacturing Plant Is Closing

Sloww, we need a marketing guy from the US, can you do marketing? We need people to attend events in Asia.

Our company is offering a Stay 2 nights, get one free promotion for ALL events in Singapore, which is a pretty big deal for the hotels, don't think all will accept the proposal, but we are sure some of the big players will.

I think the payment would work something along the lines of how many you can get over here; the more you send, the more you get.

Sorry to hear that Slowwy, here's something to cheer you up a little:


ACK!

Oil companies in Calgary may still be looking for good workers with experience in things like logistics. Some of them will be branch plants of companies from Texas.

I probably could. I sell myself short in many ways. I'm arrogant in that I think there's never been a better Planning person on earth; but then in return I think I can do nothing else. The facts are that I probably could.

sorry to hear that Sloww

wanna work for Bechtel? I could give you a couple names to drop Guys I knew back in the early 80s, should be higher ups by now.

[duke o' york]

I'd check that they are first.

No good name-dropping someone who was fired for embezzlement several years ago.

My thoughts exactly, Heresson.

it's tough at first but it gets much easier. i remember when i lost my job in october, spilt up with my other half the next day, so that was a fun week. i didn't know to do with myself, all my experience was in one area (property), which is about as in demand at the moment as hamas badges in tel aviv. i got a job soon after working for a total shower of bastards, selling timeshares, which i wasn't very good at, so they got rid of me after three weeks, smarmy tw@ts.

since november i've been getting by playing poker on-line, while i look for a decent job. i'm making out ok so far, although i'm not going to kid myself that i'm good enough to play poker as a career. it does, though, give me the breathing space i need to work out what i really want to do in life (apart from get wrecked ) and to go for that 100%.

i suppose what i'm trying to say is that although it may feel like the whole has just caved in, something will turn up, it always does and this whole thing may give you an opportunity to look at your life in a new way.

Welcome to the club! Bar's over there, bathrooms are over there, I'd tell you to dust off a seat and have a beer on me, but all the seats are taken. Been kinda busy lately.

BTW, do you know that if we still measured unemployment they way they did in the 1930s, the official unemployment rate would be 17%. Welcome to the Great Recession.

Out of curiosity, what are the formulas?

[Dauphin]

It probably because we've gone beyond considering a 12 year old not in work as unemployed.

[Wiglaf]

If we measured employment the same way they measured it in the ****ING SOVIET UNITON it'd be at 0%. The simple reality is this: SLOWWHAND HAS LOST HIS JOB, can the death penalty save him now? It does disproportionately affect virile black and Mexican workers, but someone would need to dig up more specific statistics to find out if they gas enough of them to make Texas' unemployment rate better than the national average. or Mean or median or whatever, will someone please tell me the difference since evidently Mr. Floyd from Analysis class NEVER FIGURED IT OUT HIMSELF :MA,Dl :MAD: m:

Hey Sloww, my car is still dirty - have you forgotten that you should wash it ?
