"I TRULY hope I don't run into you at the unemployment office."

I guarantee you won't. I would never accept welfare from the government.

OK ... well then I wish you luck ... be sure to make your reservation for that prime spot under the bridge.

BTW in-between my last posts and these recent ones I was at friends house. Mary ... was laid off by Sun Micro systems four months ago. She was a QC manager .... So ... hmmm let me see .... my friend Chris ASIC designer Masters EE from MIT laid off by National 8 months. My friend Dennis QA manager Cisco laid off last week, my friend Mary QC manager for Sun laid off for 4 months ... my sister-in-law VP of HR Sun Micro systems laid off 5 months ... the list goes on ... I suspect when the Tech depression hits Texas ... (it's already hitting Boston and Silicon Valley) You may yet get a taste of what it's like ... generally I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy ... but there's a few arrogant fools out there that could use a taste of it.
