drama at the teeter mart

rachel’s boyfriend is not the only one getting screwed out of vacation time. husband’s company has “restructured” their vacation time. instead of going by tenure with the company they are now going by full time tenure. so even though jon’s been with them for 12 years they’re only counting the years he’s been full time or salaried. so he used to have 4 weeks vacay and now he’s down to 2. sucks! we also found out that a good friend of ours is possibly terminated from there pending investigation. his wife and i have been friends for years. we used to work together for hannaford and now both work for the same company again. that must really suck to have your main breadwinner lose his job. i don’t know what we’d do if that happened to us. he’s been there for so long that we know he wouldn’t be able to make close to what he’s making if he had to change jobs. there are so many people we know right now who are affected by this deflated job market either through layoffs or they just can’t find jobs after a move or graduation. hopefully this economy will turn around soon and we’ll be back to the days where good jobs were a dime a dozen.
