I get regular job opening updates via Mediabistro's Revolving Door newsletter. But the MB newsletter of late, instead of being that fabulous "wow, there's an opportunity" lightbulb-prompter, is making me scared.
Nina Garcia at Elle was fired. For those of you who watch "Project Runway," this news is HUGE.
The Wall Street Journal chief, erm, resigned [COUGH Rupert COUGH Murdoch COUGH]. Or something.
The New York Times, in its 156-year history, for the first time will soon be laying off around 30 editorial emloyees.
Besides the MB news, the network where I work has laid off a bunch of employees.
My mother emailed me last night to tell me her job's office was closing indefinitely, next month.
A few months ago a private car driver told me, while driving me home, that a bunch of Citigroup execs thought she didn't overhear them clearly state that massive layoffs at that corporation would begin in March. This proved to be true.
These are unsettling times.
