Oh joy, looks like I got two weeks off!

[Demon-Xanth]

...too bad I'm only going to be paid for half of it. There was a company wide shutdown, and they're going to use our vacation time. I only get two weeks/year and I used half of it on the end of last year because they asked me to.

that doesn't sound quite right

Is the company going through financial difficulties or something?

 

[DanTMWTMP]

hmm...?...

 

[EvilYoda]

Seriously, that sucks...must be difficult just taking it up the a$$, with them dictating everything.

 

[slycat]

that could mean major news after holidays...
good luck.

 

[pulse8]

Whoa...

Maybe start a job search. Those things are never good signs of what's to come.

 

[KC5AV]

Yeah... that stinks. I thought you built up vacation time so you could take it when YOU wanted to.

yup, start floating your resume around...

Well, to leave out some of the details:
Someone higher up seriously f'ed up some figures and the income figures for 2001 and 2002 are being rewritten, some creditors said they want to be paid, and since we don't have cash we thought we had, we're screwed for the mean time. The CFO resigned before all of this was found out, and the CEO resigned after.

Top thread of this OT forum is where you need to be. Welcome to the unemployed and disinfranchised.

It won't be long. Get your resume up to date and start checking the classifieds.
