Your 2007 commemorative layoff souvenirs
Welcome to D-Day, AOL employees! Today is the reported day when 2,000 AOL employees will be released into the wild. Your consolation prize? Four to 12 months' severance and, we hear, lump-sum payments of up to $50,000 to make up for missed bonuses. Not satisfied with that? Valleywag reader bobzmudaguy has created a line of commemorative T-shirts to recognize this momentous occasion. Our favorite? This one, celebrating the Smithers and Burns relationship between AOL head Randy Falco and his lackey, COO Ron Grant. We hope, for the pint-sized Grant's sake, that the shirts come in extra-extra-small, to go along with the size of his layoff-loving heart. (Photo by bobzmudaguy)
