Well for those who do not know it yet, I got the AXE last Thursday. It's not like I didn't see it coming. Hell I already had a phone interview set up for that day and the next day I got the job! It's a 3 month con2hire at HP out there at the old Compaq campus. Long drive but it's a job! Right before I'm going on vacation too. Am I bitter? a little, sorta not, I just think they made the wrong decision. I mean I saved them so much money last year it was insane. I saved at least double maybe 3 times my salary. NEst they said we want to continue to work with you and let you contract the changes. Now they are having second thoughts on that?! Maybe I'm one of the lucky ones... it's yet to be seen, begining of the end. More later.
