HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Aite, I know this was a late wish but it is still January so it should be all good. =P

This new year seemed promising until yesterday: 2 structural engineers were laid off from my company.
And even worse today: another structural engineer and a marketing person
THEN I learned that a planner was axed last Monday.

Sad, so sad.

So today at work, I got my shit together and made sure I have my files with me - just in case. I think I would be second to go if my department laid off - since there is a temp. BUT you never know.

I am going to *pray* that I won't get cut. I even talked with the Technical Illustration Dept. to let them know that I have graphic skills. Since one person is leaving for a better opportunity in NYC at the end of January, I am sure they will need an extra hand. Hopefully, ME.

JOBS?
Governor Gray Davis wants to create new jobs. Well, how can he if California has a big fat deficit it needs to fix? His administration is cutting budgets in Education and Transportation and projects and jobs won't be funded and so how is he creating jobs?
