<BR>> I will be, in the next 2-3 months.  $WORK is closing their Austin offices
<BR>> effective November 30th.  Out of 60 people, 7 will be staying at a yet-undecided
<BR>> facility here in Austin to continue legacy product support, 25 (including me)
<BR>> were offered relocation to the corporate offices in Houston, and the rest 
<BR>> were given severance.
<BR>> 
<BR>> I've got to close down the Austin offices (~350 machines), ship most of it
<BR>> to other development centers, toss a LOT of stuff (possible geek/rescue
<BR>> event of the century here),

Ooh! Ooh! Ooh! (running around the house, looking for pennies)

> and then set up the IT infrastructure for the
<BR>> remaining people in Austin at their new place, THEN move my fat ass to 
<BR>> Houston.  Amy will be finding us a rental house there in the next couple
<BR>> of weeks, so we can graduaally move over the weekends and get things like
<BR>> electric/phone/broadband established first.
<BR>> 
<BR>> Anybody in the Austin (or driving distance) area want to buy a year-old
<BR>> Hitachi 51G500 51" rear-projection HDTV real cheap, soon?  It's not worth
<BR>> the hassle to haul 150 miles, so we'll just buy another TV when we get
<BR>> down there.

Moving's a bitch isn't it?  Better than no job I guess.
My wife's $company closed the building and she wasa to move to a new
location that would be a pain to commute to but they let her work
VO at home.  Most of her group is gone (actually I think she IS
the group now).
