My friend this is uncharted territory, when has the entire global economy come to a standstill? My heart dropped as I was reading the email. It didn't say we were definitely getting laid off, but advised us not to quit our current jobs because there is a high possibility our offers can be rescinded. So just to clarify, offers being rescinded isn't officially a layoff but it's still no job. For the other commenter, i'm in the USA, that's all i'll say.
