Hi Matt!
I am very sorry to hear that your position was down
sized. This loss is someting that I personally can
relate to (I was "downsized" 3 yrs ago).
There is some good news tho. You now are officially a
member of Team Unemployed. One only needs to be
unemployed and an Autoxer for membership. The Teams
roster is currently: Matt Murray
Mark Darby
Jason Isley
Michael Lee
We hope your membership is short lived!!
Take care and Happy Holidays
DARBY
