[Crawdad]

"as we move through the process of re-organizing ourselves to meet our goals, we need to make very difficult decisions about how we allocate resources. This includes making staff reductions in union and non-union areas. We will be finalizing these decisions over the next two weeks, and plan to talk to the people who will be losing their jobs promptly as the decisions are made.

IOW's we're gonna wait until it's closer to Christmas.

Yeah, Crawdad, but such high prose, such compassionate alliteration of un-words.
God knows that these folks do understand "concerns",
and appreciate "patience",
as they work their way through the "process".
