Yes you will live that is for sure.
And yes I got my lay off notice, the day I left for bereavement leave for the death of my mother.
I ended up getting a job before the time ran out, but I thought that they could have handled it better.
David got his lay off notice last year, and he too was able to get another job.
Both of us work in the Government sector, so all of this sequestration and continuing resolution effects us everyday. We could be laid off at any moment.
