Glad to hear someone use the word 'betrayed.' I actually wrote Scott email (and, as usual, cc'd Chantelle) where I talked about the impact of the layoff, and highlighted the things he told us back in March (when I was begging to either get laid off or given a real job description) saying that layoffs weren't going to happen because the company needed everyone who wanted to be there and contributing. Mentioned finally getting to work on the globalization stuff I want to do and know how to do; and finally getting approved for the iRise training I'd been asking for the past year.

That training was supposed to be Monday and yesterday, in Detroit. Because I'd been reassured, I had a ticket to the Red Wings game Monday night. It would also have been my fifth anniversary with Virtuoso. Instead, no training, no trip, and a wasted ticket. Not to mention the last 20% vesting in the 401(k) which would have been due, and the spare week of severance.

Betrayed is a good word for that feeling.
