    How nice for MG. Two whole furlough days reimbursed. So ... what are they going to do for the hundreds of careers wrecked and lives shattered by upper-upper managerial incompetence and greed? Nothing? OK, then. Carry on.

    couple more layoffs at my old shop today (and that's all I know), not a huge hit and not sure if it signals the start of something or just a couple layoffs.
    Still, no layoff news is good news.

    There seems to be five new people starting on the Lynchburg CEC each week. I don't know anyone here anymore. I think that's a good sign?

    I plan on taking my furlough days on Saturdays during college football season. Get a fucking robot to cover the games.
