Do Not Think It Couldn't Happen In Buna ISD, Because it Could.....

 I know it seems like everything is okay, or perhaps it does not, but the economy is not very good folks. 

The following businesses have announced in recent days lay-offs

Chevron-9100 people

Estee Lauder-7000 people

Southwest Airlines-1700 people

J.Morgan Chase - 1000

Meta-3600

Blue Origin-1000( Bezo's Space Group)

Kohl's is closing 27 stores

And there are more businesses to come.  ( Heck, Singapore Airlines is stopping flights from Houston to Manchester, England, April 1st, our favorite way to go to England.....They're blaming a poor economy and no one flying from Houston to England)

And who knows how many government works will be laid off. You can say " Good" but these same folks will be competing for your job.  And how much will their lack of spending hurt the economy? And with their entering the economy, how much will they drive down salaries? Again, supply and demand. 

Already I know people who have put out hundreds of resumes, applications to get maybe, 2-3 interviews. Just interviews, not jobs.

 School economies are not good. Every day I read about schools making cuts in Texas. 

Northwest( Rich district near Ft. Worth) ISD- 101 teachers

Crystal City ISD-32

Leander ISD-200

Socorro ISD( El Paso) -300

I asked about some of the jobs that people hired by the Buna ISD? And do they receive Federal funding for that job? 

I could not tell them what they actually did, and that yes, I think the government is funding their job. If that funding is gone, that probably means their position is done.

And with Texas SB2, how much funding to schools will be cut? Less money, less teachers, staff. 

Don't be shocked folks if their are lay-offs at Buna Schools. Less funding, less employees. Hell, perhaps less extra-curricular activities. 

I know the Buna ISD Superintendent just took up the position this week, but she's got a "hard row to hoe" ahead...

( Not sure if that is appropriate to say in 2025, but I still use the phrase, but I am old... )

BTW- Someone asked if I listen to music while writing the blog, and the answer is "Yes".....Today? Marty Robbins and Conway Twitty.
