damn the man, and the empire

please explain to me how a billion dollar company expects their employees to continue to work "as normal" when they make an announcement that approximately 2 people from each team will be let go at the end of october. mind you, these teams have approximately 8 people on them... so your odds aren't good.

i remember being little and looking foward to working in an office, with a cubicle, and how fun it would be. i must've been on crack... and now that i think of it, these thoughts were provoked from hours and hours of having to sit in my mothers office while she worked on projects and i played with the dry erase board. those fumes must've been getting me pretttttty wrecked if i ever thought that a career of sitting in a cubicle under flourescent lighting was ever going to be a good idea.

the worst part of being informed that you could lose your job... is when you find out you're not the one that is going to be the "chosen" one, and then you're stuck in your lame dead end job anyway, while you spent the last 2 weeks day dreaming of all the fabulous jobs you could find and how much happier your life would be.

sometimes you need that kick in the arse to get you to do what you really want.
