Motorola cutting 4,000 jobs in 2009 (they cut 3,000 in 2008)

[w¡n9Nµ7 §£@¥€r 123]

Electronics maker Motorola said Wednesday it will be cutting 4,000 jobs this year in an attempt to cut costs. The new job cuts follow the announcement of 3,000 job eliminations in late 2008.

About 3,000 of the newly announced cuts will come from Motorola's Mobile Devices division, which has been under pressure from plummeting mobile phone sales. The rest will come from corporate and business divisions, according to Motorola.

More depressing news. Yesterday the board of supervisors in Orange County approved an eighty hour unpaid furlough for the 4100 plus Social Services Agency employees.
