ELECTRIC BOAT LAYOFF COMING - 1,900 to 2,400 jobs to be cut.
Hi,
While it is important to point out such things I want to make sure that at LEAST the members of the board here dont succumb to the press trying to make hay when the field isn't even planted.
In other words, the Press is stupid [yeah, STUPID] and they just try to grab headlines and not bother to tell you the WHOLE story 'cause that's what sells newspapers.
Now here is the PROPERLY focused news on this issue] dont have a number of layoffs in mind. The press 'found' a number and decided to run with it. They probably just figured that since 20% of EB's business was taken back by the Navy that this means 2000 people or so. See how they work? They jump to conclusions which mislead YOU and make you think they know something which THEY DONT.
Oh I realize that it may appear I have a bias AGAINST the liberal media. I have to say here and now: Its true! I do! They are fully and directly responsible for a great many ills.
There... editorial done! And to the poster of the article: Thanks for bringing it all up. It had to be said!
thanks for that and I couldn't agree with you more about the press. Or is that Hollywood?
And it would figure they would be happy about any such eledged layoffs the stupid turds. If there's much more of the American job losses in the future they will find themselves sacked and that would make me happy.
Let them eat crow. And again thanks for making me feel better.
