Merck to cut 7,000 jobs

GM to cut 30,000 jobs

Ford to cut 4000 jobs

Casual Corner is closing 525 stores.

Interstate Bakeries has already shed 4000 jobs and is looking at
dropping another 450.

These are real jobs, not the McBush jobs Presidummy touts.





What is your definition of a real job? Is working as a clerk at Casual
Corner a *real* job Harry, or is a *real* job sweeping the floor at a GM
plant and earning $60,000/year for doing so?


A real job is a job that pays enought to enable an adult with a family to
earn enough in terms of wages and fringes to support that family with
decent food, shelter, clothing and health care.



So is working as a clerk at Casual Corner a real job Harry?
