You paint a contrived scenario and then lament it. What is the purpose? Where do you have stats showing all of these job cuts will happen in the same location?

You paint a contrived scenario and then lament it. What is the purpose?
Where do you have stats showing all of these job cuts will happen in the same location? Where are the stats that show when a person loses their job, their spouse is also likely to lose their job?
- coldtea 11y agoThe "contrived" scenario is something that has been played again and again. as opposed to the "no worries" attitude. As for the same location: typically companies have so-called offices in a few locations --not individual people equally distributed around the country. Plus, who said that their spouse is "equally likely to lose their job"? It's just an example of a thing that can happen, and does happen, not something that anyone claimed inevitable or "as likely"...
- taurath 11y agoIt is not a contrived scenario. My dad was laid off 5 years before retirement and guess what? All his skills were working in the Intel organization and nobody is going to hire a senior manager in folsom a few years before retirement. Please try to be a bit more compassionate, it actually effects real people.
