Well forget the 10,000 "mild bleeding" reports several weeks ago; seems like a major bloodbath is in the offing.
30000 job cuts

As opposed to hiring blethering idiots? Shame those days have gone, bang go my chances of breaking into finance....others will only recruit executives who can add value...

This can only be a good thing for contractors - who are hired back sooner than permies..."See, you think I give a tulip. Wrong. In fact, while you talk, I'm thinking; How can I give less of a tulip? That's why I look interested."Comment

Contracting is usually the first industry into a recession and the first out of it....my quagmire of greed....my cesspit of laziness and unfairness....all I am doing is sticking two fingers up at nurses, doctors and other hard working employed professionals...

Do you really think that IT will be hit less when not just only IT companies get hit for six, but also all other companies? If anything the downturn should be worse - I am not saying this because I like it, heck I'd prefer to have no recession and no downturn, but it's just the way it looks like at the moment.Originally posted by BrilloPad View PostComment

Well, the only contractors left are me and my team (we are involved in security) on the floor I work on. Pretty much everyone else has gone in cut backs already!
Now, if only they'd get rid of the incompetent permy senior managers we might actually be able to get somewhere!
