Unemployment bites
Grrr...lost my job Tuesday - Workforce reduction. My dept company wide is 250, they reduced 40 of us. I have the lowest seniority for engineers so out I go 
Anyways, hope everyone else is doing well.
Just thought I'd share because all I do now is sit in front of the computer and wait for email or a phone call.....

Yeah, I got dropped due to budget cuts from The Computer History Museum roughly 9 months ago. It really sucked sending out my resume to everything possible, then just sitting around waiting for a call or an email to pop up. The company I'm at is a big ol bag of gay. Good luck on the job hunt man!

Isn't it expensive capping drinks with robotic arms? Wouldn't it be cheaper just to keep using the plastic lids?
