I got laid off for the second time after 5 years and recently tried to get rehired with the same company in a different position. I didint get the job.
They told me I was to bitter about getting laid off originally in the interviews. So be aware of that if you look for a job. Don't rag on your old job. I mean they expect you to be real positive like it was such a positive experience or something, there lucky I didn't go postal in that mother.
It was two days before my daughters third birthday, i'm a single parent, the company had just relocated me, it was May and I was already over my sales quota........Working for a company that isn't your own sucks...it could be your day to get the boot anyday and you would never know it. On the bright side I bought my Busa a few weeks after getting laid off, now I don't want a job ever again, but know I need one.
Good luck.
