We just explain it, and then we get our cheques in the mail
It’s fucked up ain’t it, how we can come from practically nothin’
To bein’ able to have any fuckin’ thing that we wanted.
PS. Shadows you don't have to take her out. Be a little creative. Make dinner at home and rent a movie and what not.

Yes i lost my job because of it back in September. The company i worked for let a lot of people go around that time and more since then. Ireland is fucked. Businesses are closing down all over the place. Nearly everyone is losing their jobs, from factory workers to solicitors. I went back to college again. I had intended to do so but i got comfortable in the job i had. it was a good job. i miss earning money 
My company is 3.8 billion dollars in debt and ad revenue is slowly going down. They sent a company-wide email stating how to be cost effective and shit and there are job cuts every week or so. I'm in a pretty safe place in the company, but I could be on the chopping block since I'm a junior in the union if they plan to cut people.
when my company let go of people, they picked anyone. it didnt matter what qualifications you had or how good you were at your job. It was as if they picked it out of hat lol
The union drops usually drop people who are newer than senior members, thats just how it works out. My dad wasn't laid off at work because he's been in the union for 15 years while others were dropped.
But in all seriousness, yes, this recession is affecting me profoundly. It's allowed me to buy all kinds of things at unheard of cheap prices! I can hardly wait for the Depression to go into effect. And then the Collapse, the Plague, and the Meteor Strike.
Lol. I read about their 3.5 billion debt in the paper ~ a month ago.
I'm curious though, why can't you say anymore about it? Personal reasons or contractual reasons?
The department I work in is very small (20 employees) and I don't want internet detectives finding out who I am.
The entire media industry is taking a hit and having hiring freezes, it was hard enough for me to get a job right out of school, it's going to suck for those graduating this year.
