Job market

Well I have to admit that I got the &%$# shocked out of me. The company I work for, a technology company, just wacked 30% of our work force and gave the rest of us a 20% pay cut and took all healthcare benefits away.

They stated that we all have to "tighen our belts". My problem is that as a sales guy I exceeded my quota last year. Brought in $1.4M in new business. The company as a whole doubled their revenue figures for 2008. I wonder where all the money went?????

I got a sneaking idea that some of the executive management team all got big bonuses and us grunts are just getting the shaft for our hard work.

No boat, back in the suds.
