[QUOTE="gl55, post: 1712544, member: 729"] Corporations have been downsizing for at least 20 years. The days of working for a large corporation for life have been over for at least 20 years. The people at AA are not the first to be going through this. I would bet that most that worked there made more money than 80% of hourly workers in this State. Just like I did and the GM employees did. I would also bet that most were living pay check to pay check. I don't feel sorry or grieve as you say for people who were making that kind of money in this State with our cost of living and didn't prepare for what has been happening all over the country for the last 20 years. Yes a lot of people are going to lose their jobs, but life goes on. The problem is most people are going to want or expect to find another job making the same money and benefits with the same type of physical work. That isn't going to happen. But there are jobs out there and there are ways to make money IF YOU TRY. [/QUOTE]
