pariah_ink has posted it so it's time for a rant. My aunt has been laid off from her job, some three weeks after her husband, my uncle, was laid off from his, and roughly 2 months after my uncle underwent successful cancer surgery. They've both been doing excellent work for their respective firms for I don't know, 10 years at least. Whisk! Door's over there. Don't let it hit you in the ass on the way out.
Kindly note that these are some of my favourite people in the whole world. They are intelligent, talented, kind, funny, incredibly generous people who most emphatically do not deserve to have this happen to them. I have every confidence that they will find something else -- unfortunately the job market is not kind to highly qualified late-50-something jobseekers.
I am ANGRY. Also frustrated, because there is nothing I can do about the situation, and I HATE that.

Re: Recent treatment of my extended family
Thanks a whole heap, you bastards, and why don't you just get out the rain of scorpions while you're at it? What's all this in aid of anyway? What the hell is wrong with you?
I wish to lodge my complaint in the strongest possible terms. Consider yourselves put on notice. One more slip up and I intend to transfer my custom to an alternative service provider.
