California fails to pass budget. 20,000 state workers to be laid off.. LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – California, which is on the brink of running out of cash, will notify 20,000 state workers on Tuesday their jobs may be eliminated, a spokesman for Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger said on Monday.
The announcement came a day after California lawmakers narrowly failed to pass a $40 billion budget that would have plugged the state's deficit with a mix of tax hikes and spending cuts. "In the absence of a budget, the governor has a responsibility to realize state savings any way he can," said Aaron McLear, a spokesman for the Republican governor. "This is unfortunately a necessary decision." The layoff notices will affect about 20 percent of state workers, McLear said, adding the cuts would extend to every part of state government. The positions would be eliminated in June in preparation for California's next fiscal year, which starts in July.. http://news.yahoo.com/s/n...ia_layoffs 5th largest economy in the world? WTF kind of people do they have running this place?? ...oh right...  RIP 1958-2016 Prince  RIP 1947-2016 David Bowie

What an eye opener, everyone always says that if you work in a governmental job,
you have job security, and so forth. Goes to show that there is no secure job. | |
