My first web log entry and my first layoff process.
We had layoffs at work today - 225 people, 25% of our work force. It has been a crappy week all week. They announced that these were going to happen on Monday so everyone basically stopped working for the rest of the week.
As a manager, I had to instill good moral and positive thoughts to my team but how do you do that when you are feeling somewhat disillusioned yourself.
There were a few surprises today and some of my friends were let go. I had to personally lay off two members of my team. That sucked!
Hopefully next week we can all move on, move forawrd and get back to business. I just want to make cool products.
I need to get off my butt and get back in the gym. My few weeks off has turned into a year and I feel terrible since I stopped lifting weights and doing yoga.
