Hes disappeared on us.

 

I was PM'ing him a couple days ago...he's still alive.

 

I'm around. Just real busy restructuring my team at work.

 

^ Hey hey, nice to see your alive.
Restructuring, is that a fancy word for laying off?

 

Fortunately my team is safe, but I have to figure out how to motivate my folks to take on more work from those that were let go.

 

^ Tell them, they should be glad they have a job. No, jk jk.
Man, my company has frozen all raises for the year and Im long due for a raise. Im quite disappointed about that, but I guess thats helping keep everybody employed and I still have a job.

 

I had 4 team members get laid off last week. They both sat next to me....was a very somber week. I have to take over one of the projects, which I have zero knowledge about. I've also not had a raise for 14 months....
