So apparently as of December 1, 2009 my company has started moving my work to India. I guess the deal is, depending on how they do over there, our layoffs will begin in January 2010 with the biggest wave being then followed by 2 smaller layoffs in February and March/April.
Our workload has already decreased. We usually have at least a 3 day turn around in work but for the past few weeks we’ve actually been working on the previous day’s stuff which means there isn’t as much work available to us…because they’ve been holding it back to send overseas. So this month should be fun. MERRY FUCKING CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!
I’ve applied for 4 open positions within my company and haven’t heard a peep about it but I HAVE heard of folks in my doomed department getting jobs elsewhere in the company so I can only assume that I am shit out of luck in that area. I’m gonna be unemployed. Okay I can deal with that so let’s just get the show on the road and “git ‘er done!” I can’t say that I’ll miss having to get up every morning and go to a place that is so oppressive that people are dropping like flies…literally. It seems like every time I turn around the ambulance is at the front door of our company hauling another person away.
So that’s the update, I’ll continue this saga when I know more.
