        I'm not sure what you are referring to specifically (you, perhaps?), but if it's poker: "Some of the IT companies started Layoff. Happy Programming" I'll raise you: None of the non-IT companies haven't unstarted non-Layoff. UnHappy InProgramming :|

                Yup it's a game companies play with the under-performing ones. It's kinda garbage collection when they feel ship is starting to bloat. Nothing unusual.

                  I was laid off once. I was working in a laboratory. I immediately enrolled in a basic IT class and about 5 years (after an education/internship) accepted a job earning 2X what I was making in the laboratory. Getting laid off from that job is one of the best things that ever happeed to me.
