I'm trying to cycle through the stages of grief as fast as I can so I can get down to the nitty-gritty of finding new work. I'll have to spend next week polishing my resume', building up my accounts on LinkedIn, Facebook, and Monster, and so on. I'm thinking that maybe I'll have some time to review any open source projects that have been lingering and see what's salvageable and what's not. Seam and Plotlines might be salvageable; Toxic is probably not.
You know what I hate most? The fucking euphemism. "We've made deep, deep cuts in engineering and your position was eliminated." Not "You were laid off," or "We're letting you go," but "Your position was eliminated." Well, at least it wasn't personal, and I'll have some unemployment insurance coming soon, I hope. We'll see.
Thank you, all.
