But you have to imagine it's being said like the old chinese guy from "The Fifth Element". In my world, everyone would get fired by that guy.
So, not a big deal sort of, but just so no one can say I didn't tell anyone. They just laid off like a third of my company. We went from a team of 50ish to about 30ish yesterday. I survived. Some of the people we got rid of, we needed to get rid of anyway, but still, with a situation like that you end up having to let good people go. People who are your friends and what not. I really feel bad for the people that have known about this for weeks. Blah...
It's weird cuz they sent everyone home yesterday and told us to take today off. So it's strange that while people were losing their jobs, a bunch of us were hanging out, playing games, and going out to dinner. I guess it makes sense because when the rest of us do get back to work, it will be with relatively high spirits, all be it with a lingering sense that something's missing. Greg was talking about going to the beach today, which I don't completely get. What do you do once you've gotten to the beach? Sit? Get wet? If I go, I'll just consider it a cultural exchange like the time we went to the chili cook off and my friends had me put on sun screen 0_o
