I woke up this morning and my dad told me that he had been laid off after working for 10 years at FICO with absolutely no forward notice. Apparently one of the higher-ups had a problem with his department and so they decided to axe the entire department. He only fond out this morning as he logged onto his work laptop. 10 years of work and they can't even give him a two weeks notice like the expect from us when we quit.
These companies really don't give a shit about their employers. People can be hired and fired on a whim, and we're just numbers to them. Just remember that every time you check your credit score.
