"Thursday, June 04, 2009 at 7:54 a.m. KRCG COLE COUNTY -- More layoffs are coming at one of Jefferson City’s largest employers. The ABB plant's human resources manager confirmed the company is cutting another 25 full-time hourly employees. He said the cuts were prompted by the sluggish housing market and fewer custom orders for transformers. He also said those getting pink slips have the least seniority and will be recalled if business picks up. The latest cuts reduce the ABB work force to 595 employees."
Well, it is official...Andy is being laid off! ABB lays off by seniority and he was number 23 of the 25. His last day of work will be next Friday the 12th. It is just so crazy to think that Andy has worked there for 10 years and is still being laid off. You know we figured it was going to happen eventually because of the down turn of the economy, but it still makes it extremely hard when it finally happens. We are losing our health insurance, dental insurance and Andy's life insurance...not to forget his income. I know things are going to be tuff, but we will pull through and hopefully the economy will turn around and he will be called back...Hopefully!

Oh, Kelly...this sucks! I am so sorry. I know you all will make it through - it sucks hearing about all these lay offs....ugggh.
So sorry to hear Kelly. You guys will pull through though. Ethan got laid off from his job for about 3 months and then worked for a month and then got laid off for a week... it was rough but we got through it and still praying that everything keeps going for the good like it has been lately. Just hang in there you guys will be fine!
