213 and Counting at the Los Angeles Times
The Human Resources Department lost Jay Scott a few days ago, with only a handful of employees remaining at the LA Times H.R.'s. No word from the Orange County Facility on the head count for the Advertising Department. With street sales consolidated into home delivery, some employees may be affected, yet no word from the Circulation Department as of this moment on possible layoffs within their department.
The breakdown is as follows:
63 pressmen and presswomen from Orange County and Olympic
11 machinists at the Olympic Facility
2 pressroom supervisors Olympic and Orange County
1 pressroom clerk from Olympic
3 electro-techs from Olympic
75 editorial employees
4 electro-techs Orange County
4 machinists Orange County
21 mailroom Olympic (4 full time and 17 part time employees)
19 mailroom Orange County (9 full time and 10 part time employees)

Jay Scott left for a promotion at a big-time outfit in Orange County, he wasn't let go by the Times. Get your story straight Ed!
ReplyDeleteMsanders, did I say Mr. Scott was let go by the newspaper?

Yes, since HR is now included in your running layoff total. You even bolded "1 Human Resources" in the posting.
