SIERRA VISTA, Arizona, December 1, 2011 -
What good can possibly come out of being laid off? On December 3, 2001, America watched as 4,000 employees left the Enron building in downtown Houston with boxes of their belongings, facing an uncertain future. The hidden reality was that Enron laid off workers around the world before and after the bankruptcy. Few ever saw it coming.

Live through their anguish as they struggle to regain their financial footing.
“We did not buy presents during Christmas because Enron collapsed. . .It was hard to explain to my two daughters the economics of not buying a $20 present which we will use [instead] to buy groceries or pay for [rent] and utilities.” (Leoncio Flores - Houston, Texas)
Become encouraged as each person reflects on how the experience positively impacted their life.
“I know that my life today is directly related to getting hired [at Enron]. I knew that when I went to work there it was going to change my life; and it did without a doubt.” (Jim Rountree - Houston, Texas)
