I've decided not to put anything onto fuckedcompany.com since as I said the company itself is not bad. I think it would be unfair. Those who know me, and the circumstances of my layoff are probably thinking: "oh and they were fair to you?" No, but I don't believe the way I, or the other person who was laid off with me from our department, was told about the layoff was the real way the company handles layoffs or any other employee relations. The people who got laid off from other divisions and departments were clearly not notified the same way we were. I believe this was just the doing of the woman in charge of that department, and I really dont want to use the word "mistake" to explain it. It was definitely not the right way to handle it. I don't think that it should go by unnoticed and I will take two actions about this: First is to notify others in the company who will care about it. Second is to write the article and post it here. The majority of my efforts are better placed on finding a job, keeping myself up to date about the field and focusing on my career.
Tomorrow, I will return to my usual way of posting on my blog. Thanks for visiting and reading my thoughts in the meantime.

Hi again everybody. Sorry I couldnt update my blog for awhile. But on July 2nd 2002, I was laid off. With all the bullshit that comes with it, I was busy laughing my butt off to the way my director and my manager handled the situation.
From start to finish it was just SO funny or so pathetic, depending on how you look at it.
I'm writing about it now and I will post it sometime very soon. I want to make sure that I dont miss anything. And trying to decide if I should start something about Information Builders Documentation Services at
At the moment, I am spending most of my energy on finding a new job, a better one hopefully. I really dont know if it can be any worse, I doubt it, but rather not find out! :o)) I am looking around the East Coast, and I will post my resume here sometime soon. Please let me know if you have any ideas or suggestions for me.
