What Made you Smile/What Ticked you off Today?
Re: What Made you Smile/What Ticked you off Today?
I have something similar for my girls and it is really striking how good they look.
Let strength be granted, so the world might be mended...so the world might be mended.

The bottom one. His dog is at the top, and his wife in the middle.BoneSnapDeez wrote:Which silhouette is Luke's though?

She should have been wearing a bow tie, and me a top hat.Ack wrote:Glad to see how classy your dog is, Luke.
For certain the dog silhouette is a bit silly, but it works and I'm happy with the way they turned out. Fits our home rather well.

The thing that kept me up at night was knowing that these people were going to be fired anyway, yet we wasted their time by asking them to visit our office, just to let them go.
I still hate the way we handled it. I suggested a company wide email stating that the company had been bought out and that many changes would be made. I would then call for everyone to meet in a face to face forum where the news would be broken. Two Months notice, severance to follow.
But no. One by one we clipped them off.
Man that is the definition of what I think is wrong with the world today. My company just did this, and while I am still there almost a year latter, Its fucking the two sides against each other. It ruined friendship, hell even ruined lives.
And people like YOU could have gave a warning to your co-workers, but you said FUCK THAT so you could retire in your 30's.
I bet you really hurt a lot of people, but it's for the good of THE COMPANY.
OK you can hate me know

Actually as I recall, Luke is getting the hell out of the business and going into something else.bryan_65 wrote:Luke wrote: The question was "What is the minimum we need to operate with, and how do we cut overhead?".

Ironically something similar is about to happen internally at my company. They are about to merge two of the divisions (there are three for the country) and though it has not been officially announced, alot of us have already started looking elsewhere because when it hits it will hit hard. And even though it will be three levels hirer than us, well it does not matter.
