My sister-out-of-law got some bad news when she went to work. She was laid off. She worked in an industry that is probably really unstable in our economic climate. She was the office manager for a company that did laser hair removal. This type of procedure is really not something that people think is a priority when money gets tighter.

She actually was taking it pretty well. It sort of stinks because she had almost left a couple of times recently, but they had talked her into staying. The good news is that she can collect unemployment, but she really likes to work.

The question will really be if she can get something new before that runs out. The good news is she will ge tto spend more time with her 5-year-old daughter.
