With the recession already here and lay offs starting in earnest, how about a website which offers resources, information and services to managers who are impacted. Basically a 1 stop (and first stop) shop for managers who lose their jobs. Range of services can cover – legal, tax planning, counselling, resume writing, small business start-up advise, re-skilling/ education assistance.
Services can vary depending on the level. For example, for heavy hitters/ senior managers who get laid off with million dollar packages one can design networking holidays which help them take a break, chill and meet start ups/new ventures looking for angel investors/ mentors.
While both laidoff.com and laidoff.net domains are taken, there is not much on either of the sites. They are just parking there till someone buys these domains. Can potentially be a good extension for a brand like “www.monster.com”.

people like to tell their laidoff situations? i m not sure… esp for business people, who care their face much more than laidoff blue collars. i see my frds who enjoy those network stuff are those who are in ‘proud situations’
But i think the need is there, just a more inspiring expression needed to remove those ‘negative’ feelings…’laidoff.net’ is not a good name ^_^
