Their NOT laying them off.
They are "relocating" them to India. It really does suck. I mean both, the layoff and AOL. LOL@AOL

I have no idea whether or not it will affect our center here. It just won't be too great if it does.
Intel just keeps expanding and expanding over in Rio Rancho, on the West Side, and RR is the fastest growing *city* in NM right now. At least, with their huge plant and 24-hour work shifts, they seem to be a good neighbor! |

I'm still getting pretty good customer service from Amazon, but I think they have outsourced to India as well... going by some of the names signed on e-mail exchanges. Anyone know for sure?
