Hey Ted,

Mr Grinch just hit the Niagara area tonight. The St.  

Catharines Standard lost 3 editors and a reporter, the Niagara Falls Review
one editor and the little Welland Tribune where Douglas Kirkland began his
career lost 8 people total.

Sun media is cutting 600 bodies a week before Christmas!!<<<

 

Hi Kevin,

I can't ever figure out why corporations and mean assed people lay off/fire
others a week before Christmas, it happens all the time. Surely a week can't
make that big a difference economy wise to allow a person to enjoy Christmas
before the "Execution" of being fired. Cut, whatever.

 

Humanistic or heart warming such as it might or might not be. But at least
the people can enjoy their family Christmas without the doom and gloom of
being fired and no idea what they will be doing.

 

It's bad enough so many people are loosing their jobs because of greedy
mindless sons of bitches, who will still have a "nice Christmas Time" with
their families, while they've just laid off others.
