for W3c validation

You’ve got to be kidding me. RadioShack laid off 400 people by, well, sending an E-MAIL! Thankfully, I’ve never personally experienced a lay-off before, but I can only imagine what that does to someone’s confidence. To make matters worse, imagine you learned that your boss didn’t even have time to tell you personally. Senior Managers out there: have some respect and at least speak to soon to be ex-employees face to face when your corporation scales back its workforce. If something like that happened at the company I work for, it’s likely I would follow those given the boot right out the door in the search of a new job. Time will tell how RadioShack’s employees handle the news of their co-workers being let go via e-mail. 

RadioShack is going to be hard-pressed to stop bloggers from blowing this story up with their chatter…I wouldn’t want to be RadioShack’s PR Director right now.
