Culling the herd

Dopple-G made it. Barely. His group was cut 70%.

Turns out they aren't going without QA on my product, they're going without QA on his. The new QA person for my product is somebody from his group who will be retrained for my group. Actually she worked on mine years ago before there was another product so it is literal retraining for her. She has many years more seniority than I do so I can't really fault the decision.

Many many thanks to everybody who has chimed in with support. I owe a couple of you responses on things I couldn't answer off the top of my head and today quickly got too crazy to look for the correct info.

I am very gratefully consuming the beers that were sent to me via PayPal. Muchos gracias to Susie and Harvey. By the way Harvey - Susie one upped you. She bought me two beers. ;-)

To the several who have expressed regret at not being able to help financially - please do not worry about that. Between our finances and the severance pittance from the Collective we are okay for now. I very much appreciate the sentiment though.

1 Coincidentally, I frequently think of Susie when I think of nice things that come in twos :-)

2 I take your word on it that you are ok for the present financially. I also hope that if that changes you will give your friends, and I count myself among them, the opportunity to lend a hand. Don't be shy about it if things change, ok?
