Unemployment,
Layoffs,
New Media on 1/26/2009 3:38:08 AM by Rob Barnett

The emails are building up, the phone is even ringing - countless comrades from past lives are getting the shaft: downsized, restructured, laid off....what's the other word? Fired.
My Damn Channel is about half-way baked on an idea to put some of that fuel and fire together.
Turn the angst into employment!
Feel like cooking? Get off that facebook for five seconds and send us an email. We'll let you in on what's next:
