Were you laid off?
By GabeSemenza in Crowdsourcing
December 18, 2008

So far, a few hundred workers at Dow, Alcoa and Zachary Industrial have been laid off. Contract workers at Invista and Formosa were also laid off.

Have you, or has someone you know, lost a job?

Advocate business reporter Allison Miles wants to visit with you about the layoffs. How has the slugglish economy and its negative local effects altered your life?

You can reach Allison at 361-580-6511 or amiles@vicad.com. You can also post your thoughts in here.

I'm also curious to know if there will be a negative domino effect. How will these layoffs effect other local industries?

Thanks for your help,
