So I work for a company which has a Corp office and 8 regional offices. I am a manager at one of the regions. We were recently acquired by another company, this company doesn't really maintain my position in their regional offices. Well a peer of mine who works in one of the other regional offices called me the other day to say... "I heard there is going to be a reduction in workforce for our department coming August 26th." Ok, granted I'm glad he tought of me enough to call me to let me know, but this waiting is killing me. I can't really tell anyone else at work, I've asked my boss, who hasn't heard anything, so he says. I almost wish I could go back and not take that call. I've decided I'd rather not know it might be coming. Still no word yet on what might happen, latest is the 26th will actually be the day of more information, not something happening. I have savings, I can get another job, but the waiting is not fun at all.
Ho hum. Whoa is me.
