I can appreciate and understand where the company you work for is coming from as well as where I work. I work for a pretty big corporation (when I left self employment I started working for a 90 person company which was acquired and the a mega merger took place) with 10 figures in cash reserves.

I suppose this should make me feel good that I still have a job and the company is being cautious....I just feel like crap right now. Survivor syndrome or somethng.
