Today hasn't been that bad

It's what we've been calling "Drop Dead Day" here at A-Channel Ottawa -- the day that most of the layoffs announced in July finally take effect. I wasn't in yet when the A-Channel Morning crew left. There are several people from that group who are no longer employed.

I've said good-bye to a couple people tonight, and a couple more are putting in their final shift. Luckily, several of us landed different jobs here, me included. So for that reason and because I only escaped the axe by a matter of days, I haven't wanted to get too involved in good-byes, not wanting to appear smug.

Life goes on, I'm employed, and now have to adjust to working weekends and evenings again.

Have a great weekend, fellow bloglodytes. This will be my last one for a while.

I think he meant his last weekend to enjoy, because he's going to be working them from now on (for the forseeable future, until they make him GM, and apologize for not recognizing his talents sooner), Ma...not his last post for a while.

...but thanks for comin' out!
