About the Laid Off Loser
What's with the name, Loser?
Okay, deep down I know I'm not a loser — nor is anyone else who loses their job. But getting laid off, even if it was based on tenure and the economy has gone all Titanic on us, well, it's hard not to feel like getting cut from the JV baseball team all over again. Plus I'm horny for alliteration. And I thought it was funny, especially after Googling "Laid Off Loser" and a link came up that had something to do with "a shirt covered in Cheetos." It might come to that.

I'm not sure if that is good news. Couldn't it indicate that a lot of people's benefits are running out? We are over a year into this recession, after all.
