First layoff experience = NOT GOOD

After random newspeople shook my hand, wished me much luck yesterday, then cleaned out their desks and pretended not to cry while making cop calls - we find out that a grand total of zero individuals from the newsroom were outed.

Advertising and circulation were hit pretty bad. The Detail Department is all but gone. All of our open positions were annihilated.

But no one on our side left today.

Today...

I know I'm new to the professional j-industry, but I was told by newsroom veterans that they'd never experienced anything quite like this. It says a lot when these kinds of fuckups and future-driven fortune cookies make me want to sell my soul to a stable job in PR.
