I was in Las Vegas last friday to do a site survey (boy, was it hot. I cant believe how spoiled I’ve become about the weather na… what will I do when I go home to Maynila), and when I was there, at about 4pm, I got a call from our group lead and she told me that my company had decided to let go of some folks because of workload and performance. I had no inkling, and was quite freaked out at how quick it was done…
And just the day before I had been walking to the bus with one of them, and she was telling me she was worried about our slow period at the office and I said “Ya, but we just need to ride things through, and now is a good opportunity to learn etc etc” and the next day she was gone and I didn’t even get to pat her back bye.
rough times indeed… we posted the same day pala. good to know you’re not directly affected! =)
