Anonymous MSHA employee creates survey about job eliminations. You can read the report about it via WCYB:

Anonymous MSHA employee creates survey about eliminations | News - Home

What kind of manager creates a survey on who to let go? Geez!

Looks like more layoffs or reductions in force are planned for MSHA. They seem to be getting very good at laying people off on a routine basis. I can't imagine why anyone would want to go to work for them with their routine cycle of layoffs. Poor management and employee force planning when they have to do this on a routine basis, or at all.

A lot of people are getting laid off at Eastman, at least contractors. The main people for Jacob's Field Services told everyone last Monday that there would be no lay-offs, then not more than a day later and they start laying off. These people are jokes.

The national economy is getting a little better, slowly but surely, and yet we seem to be going in full blown reverse. It is scary, but predictable long overdue when you have an economy as shallow as ours. There's only so much you can do with retail development.
