It’s been a trying week for me. The company I work for is struggling under the heavy weight of the Global aluminum giant that owns us, and is at the mercy of their whims as they prepare to sell us. The result has been yet another round of lay-offs. I see people carrying boxes full of their personal affects as they walk out the door, wondering how to tell their families, wondering how to face tomorrow, and wondering what to do next. I see their empty desks, and the unfinished work that needs to be done. I see my pictures, and the things that make this desk my own, and pray that I’m not destined to suffer the same fate. I try to figure out in advance how I would break the news, how I would face tomorrow, what I would do next..........
