55,000 Laid Off Monday
More than 55,000 Americans lost their jobs Monday, with companies such as Caterpillar, Sprint, and Home Depot each laying off several thousand workers. What do you think?
Sher Chamberlain,
Unemployed
"Is that the last of the jobs? I'm getting really tired of having to hear about layoffs all the time."
Brad Scharff,
Systems Analyst
"Wait, people work at Home Depot? I've always just gone there, picked out what I needed, then bought it at the self-serve register. Are you sure you have the company name right?"
Travis Brooks,
Customer Service Representative
"As a Sprint customer service rep, I react to the news with a mixture of passive-aggression and moderate contempt just short of outright rudeness, sir."
