I just wanted to say that yesterday my company laid off almost 200 people. Both Matt and I still have jobs and I appreciate everyone who reached out to make sure we were all right.
The thing is, my department got hit pretty bad. The man who promoted me, the man who helped shaped my writing and my boss were all laid off. So were some very good friends.
Everyone says I should get out of the industry, but the truth is I still love newspapers.
When I went to see Titanic, I always figured I'd be like Kate and Leo and get the hell off the doomed boat. Who knew I'd actually be more like those musicians who stayed and played until the very end.
I only hope that the bottom is still a long way away.
