I was recently moved to the motion picture department of our facility, so the strike will not affect our department directly. The studios have stockpiles of feature scripts.
But our TV department is directly affected. I hear that in January or so, the shortage of scripts for TV shows will halt many productions. (Leno, Letterman and Stewart are going to reruns right now.)
So, our company may do some shifting/laying off of employees to compensate for the lack of TV work. Which means, I could be in trouble being a recent hire. Seniority may show me the door.
But we'll see what happens. I'm optimistic.
