How many of you have been laid off (Dec - current) due to this recession?

For those that have, hang in there. One good thing, at least in broke California, unemployment has been extended to 1 year.
I have just been given notice. I have been at my company for almost 9 years, and they are now letting me go. Could it be because I am an hourly employee? They said they would cut the executives salary before getting rid of the employee's. I guess talk is cheap.

that would be me (Oregon) 10 days ago
and my brother (Seattle) 15 days ago.

I have never had trouble finding a job, but the 10%+ unemployment here is making it tough.

One door slams and in your face..and they lock the rest.

Not me. I retired from the Navy and retired from working six years ago at age 50. I am set for life.
