I feel like the media drives things almost to the point of hysteria about this, and I'm so tired of it.

I wish I could believe that it is all media hype - but in my case I know it is all too true. I have been personally affected, my friends and family have received no sweet severance packages, and the job hunt continues for me and many others. Count your blessings, Munchkin.
