    Wow!!!!! Unbelievable!!!!! They did the same thing to my wife in 2010. Basically gave everyone in her position a 30 day notice that their jobs were being eliminated. She had 30 years in at the time.

    man that sux, no way I could have laid someone off after that many years service. I had 4 long timers and I would and did find other ways to cut expenses to keep them on.

    WOWWWWWWW, That sucks. We have one guy that's 72 and another that's 69. Neither can see worth a crap and they can't get around to well but I'd NEVER fire them. They've been with the company for 50 years

    Phooey. I'd lay em off, deny their unemployment claims and repo their houses.

    Ken, you just stay on your reservation and don't get any ideas about trying to pilfer mah lake and no one will get hurt.

    Sorry for your troubles, and hope you can work it out to go full geezer on em

    Bitter sweet. Hope you have saved some money to live on after unemployment is exhausted. Nobody is interested in a person over 55 for employment! Speaking from experience here.
