hows the recession affecting you?

It's gotten really quiet at work for me, I am happy to still have a job.

Well before the recession my department was under discussion of being Outsourced, then the recession hit and they made redundancies across all the other departments.

Because of the uncertaintity with the possibly outsourcing some my department left to go to jobs elsewhere, which means I have got promoted.

Oh and we still haven't been outsourced (although that has still to be decided, but every consultant they have got it to look at the proposals has said it is better to keep it inhouse)

So, I'm not sure at the moment.

Presently unemployed from a job I had for 11 years. Corporate decided my position was no longer needed so two of us were let go on the same day from the IT department in August 2008.

The last time the unemployment rate was published for the county I live in, it was 15.3%. The surrounding counties aren't much better.

I'm hoping things get better soon.

Keeps me safe-ish anyway.

That sounds like an interesting job.

I do hope you get to continue working.

Well right now I am at the data center freezing me nads of, the AC has failed and I have all doors open with 6inches of snow outside.

But yes it is interesting, lots of different stuff to play with.

Hurry up building maintenance

Yep.

That's why I want it.

If it could get here in time for Wednesday morning it would be great.

Cheers
