Mastercraft Boats said at least 110 workers would be let go.

In all, I read about 22 companies or government agencies planning to shed employees through Santhi Rudraraju's Layoff & Hiring News--007 app for the iPhone and iPod touch. The app, which works with Wi-Fi, 3G, or EDGe connection, feeding a steady flow of headlines from the full-featured Layoff Daily Web site.
