    right on We saved our employees jobs.

    We saved the job of every employee we have. No lay offfs. Bob is not taking a salary and I'm only taking 10 hours a month. Let's see other companies do that. Yes, I know bragging is a sin.

    It's great to see a business-person recognise that their employees are an integral part of their company/enterprise, and treat them well. You have my respect and admiration, Wounded Bird.

    It's good to see there are people who understand the big picture and focus long term rather than short term.

    We are laying off, I am getting a letter which says I can take severance or move to a different office - doubling my commute and making it through traffic rather than around it. 11 years ago this would have been a no brainer, but with a family you cannot take large risks....
