</li>
<li>A few still have jobs, tentatively, to either shut company down, or to transition assets to new corporate owner if one buys bits of old company.
</li>
<li>trying to find positions for those with no jobs, hoping we few left get jobs too, and hoping that somehow we stay together as a team
</li>
<li>realizing that last bit is nearly impossible, and mourning the imminent/probable loss of fantastic team
</li>
<li>thank goodness for dance, it is the only thing relaxing me right now
</li>
</ul>

<ul>

<p><a href="http://tpmelectioncentral.talkingpointsmemo.com/2008/10/dozens_of_call_center_workers.php">Dozens Of Call Center Workers Walk Off Job In Protest Rather Than Read McCain Script Attacking Obama</a></p>
<p>It&#8217;s a hard thing to do in today&#8217;s (lack of) job market&#8230;  I wish them well.  Perhaps the Republican slime machine will stop lying to people?   Don&#8217;t hold your breath.</p>
