Hmmm--it would be nice if this movie depicted a woman's experience with being laid off too.

There's actually been at least one thread on here about it......as I commented there, while in some ways I think it is depressing for a comedy maybe it will make more people in power out there aware of this problem.

Yeah, it's hard to see that working for very long as the main theme of a sitcom. That 70's Show dealt semi-seriously with Red losing his factory job, working in his clownish neighbor Bob's appliance store, then eventually getting a lowly position with MegaMart, which in turn put Bob's store out of business.

Pretty depressing movie (The Company Men) - really shows you how important living beneath your means is no matter what job security you might think you have.

I always thought the poster child for LBYM was Arrested Development!
