yes, exactly. Or if a whole department gets cut, everyone goes. I've had that happen. -- nm - loosilu Jan 29, 06:37 4
- I've seen that happen too. -- nm - znufrii Jan 29, 06:39 3
  - I've also seen the "only computer guy" get cut. -- nm - loosilu Jan 29, 06:40 2
    - I was at a company where all the redheads got fired. -- nm - Redmond has a particular set of skills Jan 29, 06:41 1
      - seriously, they cut the computer guys. more than one place. "We'll hire someone by the hour as needed" or "we'll use the guys in our other office." -- nm - loosilu Jan 29, 06:41
