I'm out.

Our entire US team got axed today. After hearing about troyisburning's recent shaft, I'm grateful for the fairly dignified treatment and decent severance I got. Now that it's over, I'm significantly less stressed than I was before. I'm sure I'll be ok, but naturally it's shocking to be without a steady paycheck for the first time in nine years.

I've been the survivor in the last 8 or 9 layoffs, and considering how badly fucked the remaining people will be, I can honestly say I'm glad I'm not one of them.

Thanks for the hug. Sorry I missed on for you at dinner yesterday. I never fully migrated down to that end of the table.

I'm sorry I missed you, too...I got to chatting with folks on one end and you were on the other, also enjoying good conversations, I'm sure. Some nights are like that. Hopefully we'll end up at the same part of the table at one of these things soon. I always enjoy hearing about what you're up to.
