Alas, today is "major pink slip handout" day over at Yahoo, where "police and security teams have been scheduled to provide order in case anyone goes postal." But things are getting ugly overseas as well. According to Valleywag, "the entire Dublin Finance team was laid off, to be outsourced by some place in Romania. Europe learns who gets axed [today] -- let's hope Rich Riley is among them, but unlikely as he is another Jeff Weiner - completely golden."

We have no idea who that is exactly, but still: yikes.

Any Yahooians who have been ordered to put their Swinglines in a box and scram care to tell their stories? When you've sobered up and dried those tears, we'd love to hear how it all went down.
