long time

well it's beena long time since i updated this blog. i'm still livin on myown, love my apartment at least now that i have heat. as far as my job is concerned... well the line that i work on is being shut down on 2nd shift so only day shift will run so that had to disperse all of us there was like 9 people that are being transfered out and a fewwent to press 1 to power seats and other odd jobs, luckily i didn't get press!!! i was so scared i would get press or power seats. well they expect my line to be firing back up in febuary or march so they put me, another key memeber on my line loni, our old team leader alicia, and 2 old chicks in what they call "special projects" so we can be available to comeback when they need us. well we got out transfers on teusday and we were told that everyonein special projects has to go to day shift, ahh! so unhappy about that cus A: its dayshift and i would have to be there at 6am. i laughed at the lady when she told me i had to be there at 6 am. well B: i would lose my 1$ shift premium which is 80$ a check thats a lot of money! well our last day wednesday they said that for out first week back we will be reporting to our current advisor and on 2nd shift they told us they would try and work it out so that we can work 2nd shift instead of 1st. i pray they do cus i don't know if i could handle 1st shift. well we are going to be painting cleaning organizing racks and so on and so forth. boring! but thank goodness i have so much knowledge on my line that they want me to return to it. we found out they are starting the layoffs but they are starting with salary people first. they are giving them 45 days to volunteer layoff and get a package and if they dont get 50-80 people they will have to choose and they won't get a package my advisor along with a few other people i think are targets cus some of the lines they had shut down like jim losing tundra less to look after, but i could be wrong. so far no one knows if the layoff is going to spread to the floor yet or not. boy i hope not! this'll be the first layoff in 20 years for the company. awful! well enough depressing stuff. oh we all are being forced to take an extended vaca, i only have enough to be paid for 1 of the extra days till january then i have it coveredso on my next check i'll have 3 days unpaid. i don't know what i'm gonna do.
