FTVLive was the FIRST to tell you that Raycom had started whacking employees on Friday as part of company-wide budget cuts. 

Well, it appears that Raycom's pink slip express is not quite ready to be parked yet. 

Sources tell FTVLive that WDAM (Hattiesburg) longtime engineer, Jim Etheridge was told to pack up his stuff yesterday. 

Etheridge had been at the station nearly 40 years. 

It used to be that having seniority at a TV station was a good thing, nowadays it seems like you are one of the first to be let go. 

Oh...by the way.... Happy Holidays.
