Fwiw, I worked at a company that laid off all of its contractors, and the entire manufacturing line operators, over the holidays annually. Then, sometime in January, they went looking for them.

To tide everyone over for up to a month without income, the company handed out the fixings for a turkey dinner for a couple or small family in a Tupperware container. Everyone would line up in their cars in the parking lot to get their turkey dinners.

When Bush went to war, sales stopped, so they extended the layoff to nearly a year. I lost a house.

Happy holidays, everyone!
