EMC delende est!

[lelio]

bringing total employees to about 17,000 by early next year.
What on earth is EMC doing with that many employees? I thought they took hard drives, put them into big boxes, and wrote the software to manage it all. Its not like they are making the drives (ala Seagate of some years ago and they had 80k+ employees)

What a minute, wasn't there a bunch of Bushbots saying that all this is just democrats "talking down the economy"? Didn't they say we are on our way to recovery?

(big sarcasm alert)

My prediction: More layoffs to come in 4th Quarter. Standby for 7% unemployment by January 2003. Word to the wise: If you have a job, and you're not saving your money like Scrooge, you are a FOOL.
