Due to the topics relating to layoffs, rumours and information I am addicted to this site. My wife asks me, what's more important? Me or that bloody layoff site, clearly it's the layoff site and feel I need support from BHI to wean me of this horrid addiction? Does anyone else suffer this side effect or is it just me? does anyone have any (serious) advice? I will end up in cornhill at this rate! If not advice, do you have any rumours or information about this topic?

Go and see a shrink murray.
Get off the internet and web site and start banging you wife every time you want to read the entries. F-- her brains out !
Just get off this site and start applying for a new job. When I was at NOV, I constantly watched their layoff site too. I was waiting for the end. In hindsight, I should have just started looking for something way before the layoff. Being unemployed s---s.

With the layoffs help I'll conquer this terrible affliction!
You won't wean yourself off this site. You need to go cold turkey. Just stop using it. End of.
$100s of millions in severance
Keep your CV updated. All service companies continue to cut cost through attrition/redundancy/layoffs or whatever you want to call it. Latest conference calls indicate $100s or millions are still being 'spent' on severance.
My advice would be hit the happy hours this afternoon and get absolutely steaming.
