I never understood why companies lay people off a week or two weeks before the holidays. I am sure they knew at least weeks in advance they were going to lay you guys off.

Good luck with the job search.

Generaly it is a numbers game....those salaries come off the books, so from a numbers standpoint the quarter looks good. If you are a full time job, your insurance comes off to. Generally your insurance cost the company 33% of your current salary...so if you make a 100,000, with insurance, on average the company "saves" 133,000 off firing you. Imagine doing that for 10 people...imagine doing it for 25...numbers look real good...:shaq:

Plus layoffs are rarely about who "deserved it" and more about who made the most, who wasn't friends with who...who is the new guy...
