lol... From what WBEN was reporting, 1800 people got pink slips. But an additional 1200 are supposedly not identified as of yet. That was the extent of the explaination.....
.....seems more likely Giambra and company wanted to release a higher number to the press in order to add presure on the 1% issue.
The only thing that worries me is that the job cuts/loss of service issue is going to trump the real issues here in the press. The real issue is that the county expenditures are too large to be supported by our tax base. But by shifting the tone to layoffs, it's encouraging people to think of this proposition in a negative manner.
