    Many of my friends got tapped on the shoulder about this the other day. I was fortunate to escape when I had the opportunity 14 months ago, but I feel horrible for you and my other friends today.

    Tell us please where are the vendors located? So is McClatchy thriving now or not? How did they do the last quarter or two since the company was sold? How is Gannett doing?

    It's not a public company anymore.

    And another thing: how come I can’t get no Tang ’round here?

    "McClatchy" and "thriving" don't belong in the same sentence.

    That sucks BTE. The bad news in this business just keeps on coming. Glad you have savings to cushion the blow.

    Had my exit interview this afternoon. Guess they're not going to change their mind. Three more shifts to go. :eek:

    Oh, well. Will be nice getting two incomes for four months (new job starts July 6, and severance from soon-to-be-old job runs until early November).

    Glad you landed on your feet.

    I'm sure you'll miss getting all the Boise news ahead of us here in the Gem State ... ;)
