    Unhappy

    Dudes, it sucks so bad, i come in to work and my account has expired so i figured out right away that something is wrong.
    Then a coworker of mine comes in and she says that another dude has been fired and she looks terified.
    Then withing 5 seconds of that my boss comes in and says.. he says we have to talk... to make a long story short the company i was working for lost funding from this other company and guess what boys and girls they had to lay people off.
    First went the whole accounting department... sucks
    that wasn't enough...
    Then went the advertising..... sucks
    Then went the QA....suck
    Then there i go because i have lower seniority then the other people...... SUCKS OH SO BAD.
    But because i didn't get fired but got laid off, i get 2 weeks severance pay, full time of course, and that is good, but still sucks none the less.

    I am soooo jobless right now.

    Anybody know of any openings in NYC?

    Welcome to the club. What really sucks for me is that it's hard to woo the women with no green rolling in...

    you can, but you might look silly doing so...

    i see that this is a carry over from the last prez http://www.wired.com/news/business/0,1367,40771,00.html . i witnessed massive layoffs in san diego. a good example would be flashcom. http://www.zdnet.com/intweek/stories...667210,00.html

    maybe you blame bush for that too...

    From the movie "Office Space":

    You've been missing work recently.
    Well, I can't say I have been missing it!
    Yep, after a while, you just get used to unemployment (although a regular check is always nice)
