Thread regarding Corinthian Colleges Inc. layoffs

Remember the movie Titanic?

We are past the point where the ship hit the iceberg (DOE funding action in June)resulting in taking on massive amounts of water (stock price plunge) and are past the point where the ship broke in two (operating agreement) and are about to the point where the back-half of the ship starts to rise out of the water, causing many to fall (mass layoffs). How long before those remaining on board are plunged into the icy waters (unemployment) with no rescue in sight (severance/vacation pay)as the ship plunges to the bottom of the ocean (bankruptcy)? My advice - jump into a lifeboat (new job) - now.

"I'm thankful. You must do me this honor. Promise me you'll survive. That you won't give up, no matter what happens, no matter how hopeless. Promise me now, Rose, and never let of that promise. Never let go of that promise ."

I'd say Costa Concordia is better anology. Incompetent, self serving, captain in total denial destroys ship and lives.... And is going to jail.

People believe their jobs are safe, despite the facts. I'm done trying to convince everyone otherwise.

Old analogy. It's used every day on here.

Well, there was the Unsinkable Molly Brown, and a fair number of women and children.

Why do you keep posting this? Most people here probably have their resumes out. It's hard to look for work while you have a job. There's at least some chance that some jobs will be saved, but I'd bet most are hedging their bets. No need to rub it in.
