Pepperidge Farm remembers.

Hope for the best, plan for the worst.

That's the mindset many of us had when hired before 9/11 and got to suck up the dark decade (and a half) before getting to move on.

Hopefully it never happens to you. But when/if it does, you and many others will see in in a different perspective.
