Employment FAIL!
Let's just say the well-loved local tv station I worked for had some pretty massive layoffs last week, and I was included.
 So if you or someone you know is looking for a web and/or print designer, think of me! I'm in the middle of updating my horribly out-of-date freelance site: High Sky Design - Arizona - Web Design, Marketing, Advertising for the Internet. Web sites that work. And building my personal portfolio site: Korina Adkins : Web and Print Designer I have resumes galore as well.  Thanks y'all! Also, I have some time in my schedule for some beer,  as long as you're buyin.  __________________ It takes two to tango; one to do the running man.

Sorry to hear that. I'm sure you'll land on your feet.
But atleast you won't have to look at Ross Shimabuku's FJC anymore. __________________ "If I would, could you?"-AIC '62 rolling Chassis 4 Sale http://forum.ih8mud.com/vehicles-tra...ng-chasis.html |

that sucks, specially now... is it normal for a tv station to lay off? i would have thought it a pretty solid place to be.

 I think they last time they did a major layoff was in like 1996. The whole industry is suffering right now. At "the big meeting" we were shown some stats, and I guess local broadcast stations are just bleeding viewers. They're all going to cable. A competitor just did a smaller layoff last week too, and closed their job openings. The folks in the actual tv production part are fairly safe (though I think some camera people and on-air talent were let go), but the web and graphics ppl were considered expendable. Quote:
We actually had two vacations already planned -- camping this weekend, and mexico in june -- and we're going to try and follow through on both. Especially the mexico trip, since we already purchased airfare and accomodations. Quote:

Howdy! Big $$$ is going into the web-news industry. The Republic and Channel 12, both owned by Gannett, are putting lots of effort into this area. Check them out, if that's NOT where you got laid off at. John
