The Cookie Is Crumbling

Filed under: Tech Talk > Business Blitz

Word on the street is that Yahoo! is planning to cut a massive 3,500 jobs.

We sure hope - for their sake and the economy too - that this is just a rumor!!!

We let these singers, actors and sports players get paid millions of dollars a year when hard working honest people are losing their jobs and homes every day. What makes them better than anyone else?
I know for a FACT that my husband and father work harder than any sports player getting DUI's or singer drugged out or even those brats on MTV. They work harder and yet get paid the least.
It's backwards. My daughter dreamt of being a teacher…but I dont want her to. Why? Because they dont get paid anything and I know that if she does follow her dreams, she will struggle to pay her bills the rest of her life.
And thats the saddest part of all.

…it will turn around. Hang in there. But these job losses are pretty scary. "For Al We Know" right after the election people will begin to feel better and start spending.

Cunts just tried to rip me off by continuing to charge me for a service I had cancelled. It took me several hours of phone time to solve the problem. Shit eating scumbags.

The powers that be are thinning out the herds. They used 9/11 to do the same thing. What do you think, citibank next?

I honestly think we haven't seen anything yet regarding job losses. I think the worst is yet to come, sadly.

Predictable. Just like AOL, which is practically totally outsourced to India.

The economy has alot to do with Americans making bad choices. if you make 35,000 a year and a bank offers you a house loan for $400,000 or more use your head. Americans are greedy and have large amounts of credit card debt.

The fight to defeat Prop 8 is going to be hard-won. Our opposition has a war chest of millions of dollars, and we must match them dollar for dollar. Every dollar counts, so please contribute today and again in the coming weeks. Backers of Prop. 8 raised $24.3 million as of the end of September. WE have only raised $15.4 million. WE are seriously underfunded.
