http://www.wral.com/business/story/4165066/ There has been much talk about layoffs lately and it's all just so horrible! Nice timing on Cat's part :evil:
Caterpillar tried all different ways to stay open and pay employees. Just talked to some who were laid off and most really do understand. It is that ripple effect. I would guess that FF's layoff at another corporation was directly tied to Caterpillar's decision. I don't think we have seen the full impact yet so brace yourselves. http://www.4042.com/4042forums/showthread.php?t=21381&highlight=caterpillar Sincerely, Sherry
I drove by Caterpillar at about 12:45 PM today and all the local TV stations were setting up their remote vans across NC 42 from the Caterpillar entrance. I am confident there will be news from these vans on the 5:00 PM news.
Cat Lay Off's Just heard from a good friend of mine who works @ Cat. He went in today and got laid off. Week before Xmas and with a toddler......... Horrible!!!!!!!!
