No matter how much you feel down some days, building sites, submitting, hoping to get listed, checking stats, hoping to get checks soon, wondering what new attack on adult content will get launched next ... at least you don't get told this one day:

Employees say they have been told to cancel vacations and be at their offices on Tuesday. They also say they have been asked to bring in their company cars, and are hearing that extra security will be added at affected sites. At some sites, workers are trading dark jokes about their fate, telling colleagues to take their laptops when they leave for the night...

In case you missed the news, that was exactly what General Motors employees were told recently:

I've had to go through that a couple of times and even in this business although things are virtual in this biz. When people are fired they will spend the rest of their lives hating everyone that made the decision and often everyone that simply did not get fired.

Unfortunately people take business personally.
