H.P. cuts salaries 15% for April

This Sucks!!! We're back to where we were 3 yrs ago. I really hope this is for 1 mo. only. I don't have a fancy living style,we have kept cutting corners but w/ my medical bills,hours Allen work for them,he under alot of stress

Company Merges sucks!!!

We're on the short end of the stick this time again. EDS sold out to HP,Hewett Packward. In April we'll be down to 15% less salary.
Last time Citzen phone co. left Texas,7yrs ago,we had to sell our house since we got downsized. We no longer have any assets left. Our 401 K went in the trashcan. Our stick is getting shorter 7 shorter. If Allen gets layoff,no insurance=no 0-2 & med's =a dead ME!!!!
Thompson hospital treats illegal alien,free baby delievery @ gunshot victims treated from Juarez. But if we show up we have to pay the bill!! Where is the JUSTICE in this ,the taxpayer!!!
We bailed out big corp,line CEO's pockets, mortaged our g-kids future. There is not going to be any middle class. To think Allen & I worked hard to get thru college so we could have a better future. There is no money for retirement,or safty net for me who has serious health problems & disabled. I worked hard when I was younger,raised 4 kids& was active in my community. This is a slap in the face for being hard working,tax paying Americans.

Perlpexed,frustrated&MAD!!!!!!!!!!

Fiday HP announced as April all employees get a 10% pay cut. It's supposed to be for a month. We will see on that. We have already have had 5% paycut,so this means we're going to be short 15% short on income.We have medical bills incurred from my rapid weight loss. My medications are expensive even w/co-pay. I get no SSD,I'm 4 credits short. I can't work to make up the loss income. I'm have to cancel my heart appt. They will want an echo & the co-pay up front. I have pushed my sleep study till June. They have to adjust the pressure on my machine since I lost 30 #'s. Dr Diaz willl work w/us on a payment schedule
Allen was supposed to have a day off to do things around the house &yard before its gets too hot & windy here. They kept calling him. This is what makes me MAD,MAD,MAD!!!! He puts hours in for them & we don't have the money to leave the house to get away!!!!!!!!!!! They made him a T-val,mgt postion w/no extra money,no raise ,& now 15% salary cut. Allen is under great stress both @ work & trying to scrap up money.We're now @ the point of 3yrs ago salary. We couldn't make it then.
No trips for s/bk supplies. I using my stuff in my stash. I'm lucky a friend mailed me extra stuff she wasn't using.@ C-mas. This means my Iraq card project to another soldier is put on hold. There is no Hallmark store for the troops to get cards to send home etc. My 1st shipment in Feb. was graciously accepted. She was able to use my cards for V-day to send to family etc. I never sell my cards, I give them away. It would take away the fun of making them. I love the fact I can make somebody's day. I have the twins 30th b-day coming up in July.
