The State of Georgia is in the process of downsizing the statewide technology portion of state workers. Some of the duties will be outsourced.

The Ga. Technology Authority let about 46 people go today. I don't know if they were all programmers and/or administrative type people.

Employees where I work are probably worried about where they will end up.

I didn't dread going into work when you were on your two week vacation. I really don't know how to deal with you.

I work in Social Services, so it's RARE that we get laid off, but it could happen. The problem is that VA spent a lot of money when it had surplus funds due to the housing market, but since that's taken a nosedive, the State has had to readjust some things.

and stop paying people who walk in off the street a better salary than people who have been here for years and are already trained. THAT IS the only reason why people keep LEAVING to go to other counties to do the same thing.

Teamwork goes both ways. Or at least it is supposed to be. If I am promoting your programs, you should be promoting mine.

When the two of you go off for coffee together, you might as well leave at the same time, instead of "timing it" so that you leave 2 minutes apart. We've all suspected since March 2007 that the two of you are having an affair, so stop insulting our intelligence. Just leave together. Yeesh.

I'm sorry, I thought part of your job was to communicate with your staff. Stay in your office. We do better without you.
