Following up to Melvin’s email about SNAP benefits being held and people not being able to put food on the table. He has decided to give each employee a Turkey for Thanksgiving. He thought, what would Jesus do? And it was clear this was the answer. God bless us all and God bless Melvin’s generosity.

Qualcomm’s longest-serving employee
A heart warming article on WSJ about the longest serving employee of QC..
De... ..nch at Qualcomm
Principal engineer/manager
Age: 61
Date hired: 1987
Early days: Qualcomm’s longest-serving employee moved to San Diego after college, looking for warm weather. He saw a classified ad in the San Diego Union-Tribune in 1987 and applied for a role as a technician. He was 22. “I had no idea what the company was,” he said. Qualcomm would go on to power the technology used inside millions of cellphones and other devices, with Punch working on many of the company’s key projects.
At least layoffs are not happening (for now)
Remember why this site is here? Oh yeah... to report on layoffs. All the people yelling "the sky is falling" seemed to have been wrong. We seem to at least have some stability and can focus on doing our jobs and stop looking over our shoulders for layoffs.
Good luck!
If you’re still hanging in there, you’re incredibly strong! I’m so glad they let me go — I’ve never felt this free!
We need more of this!

Amazing email on benefits improvement
Having a hard time swallowing this. Honeywell actually is planning to pick up the tab for medical insurance premiums to the tune of 40%.
It reads as if the decision was taken to voluntarily give employees money. Someone please find the cash. It seems too good to be true!
So why didn’t the whiny complainer from OPO mention we are getting bonuses?
He complained about his long commute, uprooting his family, a full parking lot, no car…typical Ginger stuff. But he didn’t mention the bonus part. Yes, bonuses of over 100% multiplier for many departments. Oh…we can’t mention good news. Yes, there will be change. It su-ks. Get a grip. There are other places to work. You can just quit. No one is forcing you to work for Walgreens. With no car you should have a nice savings built up.
Stock is soaring
We're coming back. ELT is doing work.
My small team is in a "too good to be true" situation
I don’t want to jinx it, but we’re paid well, have flexible hours, the work is interesting, and our manager, who’s genuinely great and has no reason to lie, keeps telling us we’re safe. Still, something about how perfect it all seems makes me uneasy. I’ve read too many stories of people who thought everything was great, only to have the rug yanked out from under them. Should I worry or am I being an id--t?
