Joann,
What I copied for you was all the detail there was in that section. I sounds
like Mike may have come up with a copy fo the press release. I look again to
see if there's anything else there.
Regarding those lists, I'd do both the PH and the JDE list. In case you don't
have one or the other address here they are:
powerh-l@lists.swau.edu
jdeworld@jdelist.com
Take care, George

Thanks for your help and I will check with Sandy. Is that Insider page
something that could be copied and sent?
You know I never did put my resume on the list. I'm on the list again and have
all the messages coming in, but I guess I got too involved in these "leads" for
positions that I thought looked good. I'll have to give that a try as it was my
intention to do that.
Have a great day and thanks again!
Joann

D__n it anyway! Your choice of words may be at a spicier level by now. What
about that hospital position? Did you ever post yourself on the PH-list? If
you did I never saw it. You never know! You could do the JDE-list as well.
I'd just apologize ahead of time and then state my case - to heck with them if
they can't take a joke, or resume, or whatever.
You haven't talked to Sandy Schultz have you? She may know where such a copy
exists. I did get on ABB's Insider and here's what I found:
July
Company Total Layoffs
ABB 12,000 (Over 18 mths, 2/3 of work force in Europe)
Alcatel 4,000 Europe (14,000 globally)
Arla 700 Europe
AvestaPolarit Oyj 330 Sweden
Avnet 200 Europe
Akzo Nobel 2,000 cuts in 30 sites, mainly Europe
Bata 875 France
C&S 147 France
Samsung 600 Portugal (300 in the first half)
etc...............................
Then they make reference to Wall Street Journal archive aticles that may have
some of this content but I couldn't get in w/o being a subscriber. If you
need this you can probably get on at the library - the site is
http://interactive.wsj.com/archive/search.cgi .
I think your best bet is to call HR - they should be willing to cooperate with
you and you'll probably need something official.
I'll see if Heather or someone saved a copy also. In the meantime remember
we're praying for you. If you go to school maybe I'll see you there. I was
thinking about an Oracle class.
All our best,
George

I know this is a long shot, but do any of you have a copy of the letter or
announcement from last year that stated that ABB was going to be eliminating
12,000 jobs world-wide? I'm checking into getting funding to take some
classes
at WCTC and would really like it if I could get a grant or something to help
pay
for the classes. I just talked to someone today at Workforce Development and
she thought I might need a copy of that announcement. If you guys don't have
it, maybe someone else might. I have an appointment next Tuesday, May 7th, so
would appreciate any help you can give me.
No I don't have a job and received rejection letters this week from both
Harley
and Hellermann-Tyton. The letters just state that my qualifications don't
match
their needs which really doesn't tell me a thing. It's very frustrating,
because I felt that I had the qualifications for both places. This has not
been
a good week. Hopefully a nice weekend will help.
Hope you're having a good day!
Joann
