I was making some ramen as I watched on TV How the following companies layed people off today and are about to this week :

EXPO ( home depot company ), Sprint/nextel, Caterpillar, John deer, Microsoft(1st time ever accoding to the news), Starbucks,intel,ING direct.. and a few others..


As Im watching this, I open my kitchen cabinet and realize, I may have to bump up my ramen consumption...

This is what I see it coming down to. Chain reactions.

Banks won't give loans to keep businesses and corporations going.

So places go out of business or just lay off people. That trickles down.

Other companies are forced to lay off people because they are losing money, but they are losing money because people aren't shopping. People can't shop without jobs.

It seems like alot of this places are quitters. My business ideals would involve attempting to weather the storm. Not further destroy the economy by laying off people who in turn will have to file for unemployment and welfare.

It is turning into a neverending cycle.

I'm no business major, poly sci holler, but thats my couple of pennies.

Home depot is not letting anyone go.. only there EXPO store.. which I thought was dumb to open up those stores in the past, made no sense..

Expo stores sold more higher end stuff I believe....but owned by Home Depot.

[green91]

On the news they said even during great times the expo stores werent very profitable so it only made sense for them to be closed during duress

[Sammich]

sodium overload...SODIUM OVERLOAD lol

Yeah, Expo stores were a dumb move. There are too many specialty stores for high end home furninshings. Home Depot should have left those items as a special order option.

Strap up people, its going to be an interesting year!
