The latest round of layoffs has started at the company I work in. This
time, our organization is directly affected. I do not know yet if I'll
have a job by the end of the day, but I know some folks who already know.
Purrs for me and my colleagues would be most appreciated.

By all means the purrs are on the way. I was layed off a few months ago,
so I hope you keep your job. Good luck.

Oh, no! Not another catslave with tuna-place issues! Seems like way too
many of us are having to deal with employment stuff.
Many purrs coming, Victor. Please keep us posted.

Worried purrs from here for you.
These days, when the corporate term for employees is "resources", akin to a
file cabinet or a PC, life can be scary indeed.

Purrs that your company is kind to you
I know how you feel though. I was made redundant 3 years ago from a job I
hated....was probably a blessing in disguise once I got over the "how dare
they do this to me" factor!!

"made redundant"? I haven't heard that term! It means "laid off"?
This is a Halliburton town. The latest buzz word for "laid off" in
Halliburton-ese is "Impacted."

You probably know what's happening already, and my purrs and kind
thoughts are wasted, but you have them for yourself and everyone who
needs them where you work. May something be worked out, and all of you
either keep your jobs or find better ones.
