Thread regarding Qualcomm Inc. layoffs

What is your Plan B for survival?

Your 2 months of free WARN Act pay are almost at an end, but the mortgage payments will keep on coming--as will all of the other expenses. Even worse, you are about to crush your cell phone if yet another recruiter calls offering you a contract job with ChipCo, in a position for which you are overqualified, for $50 per hour. (After he takes his cut.) What to do? You too may qualify to be an email scammer. All it takes is a compelling story, as many email addresses as you can find, and a really good sort algorithm. But hey--if a Nigerian Prince can figure this out, it should be a cakewalk for some of QCOM's best and brightest engineers! Soon you too can be making $60,000 and more every 6 months!
