Need Work! Work For Food!

Need Work! Work For Food!

I just been over at Reyna Elena’s Blog and my goodness, natakot ako sa pinost nya!  He entitled it Ay! Leche! probably for the lack of a better term.  He just listed a couple of global companies, even some of which are housed locally, that laid off or are going to lay off thousands of our countrymen.  Ay, leche talaga! Here are some of them:  

  1. Accenture – one of my former co-workers was a direct hit of this, sad, sad
  2. Intel announces RP operations shutdown
  3. Herrera: 35,000 lose jobs in Laguna
  4. Crisis to hit investments in RP mining
Not to mention offshore:
We need massive belt tightening, people.  Each of us has to.  I know I have to and I will (crossing fingers). You can not say you weren’t warned.
