> The Pink Slip Party is a grass-roots phenomenon that gathers together
> hundreds of professional workers and sympathizers to honor the passing of the
> many companies that have shut their doors or have down-sized throughout this
> market meltdown. The party is about solidarity and dot-commiseration and
> connects the pink slipped (and those who are nervous about being let go) with
> recruiters and HR and recruiting professionals at companies that are still
> hiring. 
>
> Aside from the usual imbibing, commiseration and all out insanity that every
> pink slip party brings, headhunters, direct-hire companies, and recruiting
> firms are also on-hand to learn a little bit more about what you do.  Maybe
> you'll meet a new contact, or find a new job?
