False alarm -- because the article stating this is from a 2011 Huffington Post blurb at http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/10/1 ... 20200.html. More about this "news" at http://ny.eater.com/archives/2011/10/brett_anderson.php.

He's been named a Neiman Fellow for 2013, so he's gonna do just fine next year. See that announcement here: http://www.nola.com/dining/index.ssf/20 ... erson.html Though WWL is reporting that the paper did just lay him off....

With a three day format...
Bret won't be the only one finding a pink slip in his/her pay envelope.
Do they still have pay envelopes???

What's a pay enveloped? Every payroll of my adult life has been direct-deposited.

Hi hunger,

Surely you missed the fact that I made that statement... IN JEST!!

Evidently you are too young to remember that there was a world before the the Internet, i-phones and direct deposit...

I turn 68 on Flag Day on (June 14th) and believe me I recall pay envelopes.
That said... allow me to tell you I seldom use the term "good old days"
My response to that is... " Oh! you long for the good old days?
Well just turn off the a/c... that the good old days.
I like it the way it is now!!!

BTW: I even got a "pink slip" once.

Enjoy your youth... it goes fast!
