Facing the Reality!!!!

Its with utmost sad heart that i am posting this brutal reality which is hitting each and everyone of us is someway or the other ... The economy Gloom.... we are living by the day ... trying our best to be the best that we can be... but teh simple reality is that there might be situations which we might not be prepared for ...

so this is what happened... was down for a quiet smoke down at the office building.. enjoying a surprisingly not so cold day in nj ... when a young lady walks to me and asks for a light ... and no soooner had i offered .. she burst into tears.... ! the words which we all hope we do not have to hear " I GOT LAID OFF " .. i do not know her name.. just know that she is.. well was part of a Research Team in C B Richard Ellis, East Brunswick, NJ... i hope she is ok and looking forward to the next gig.... which i hope is soon.. amen!!!

So this brings us to the Brutallity of these trying times... What do we do... and there is a very interesting article which i came across and it sure made me rethink about my Social Networking Skills... which apparently need lot of pruning, polishing , publishing and publicising.....!!!!
