    Plant manager sending out a site wide email saying that we’re doing awesome, and we’re desperately hiring so refer all your friends. One month after layoffs were announced, and those to be layed off still had a month to go.

      I don’t know where you’re from, but some countries/areas have laws against fire and rehire, it’s a disgusting practice.
