Say it ain't soOriginally Posted by Beyond
just find out the company is getting ready to shut down 2 of our 3 offices here in Houston.
Not sure where that leaves me.
Good luck !!!
We shutdown 90% of our East Coast operations in the last 6 to 9 months. The hard times have reached Texas now. We shutdown 6 offices across Texas in the last 2 months. So I guess it is our turn in Houston to take a hit.
I'm not sure if I will be affected. [knocks on wood]
I currently wear 2 hats the 1st (and most important) is managing our commercial construction division which has not seen a downturn in the market, yet. And 2nd is running the IT department for our Southwest Division.
Just hedging my bets, hoping for the best and planning for the worst.

I have been kindly asked to stop finding primes, it seems the administrator(s) of the project are afraid that we are running out of potential primes. So I will be shutting down operations this evening.

Beyond,
I'm less than 12 hours to move the rest of my fleet to server port 100. So far I have 3/8 on it. Care to join me for a week? I'll stay there until I dry out the server.

I'll join you tomorrow.
On the job front, I have it on good authority (the owner) that the office closings are not scheduled till next month and I personnaly have no worries, my job is secure.
The only good thing about this mess, is I will have access to those other 2 offices machines when we move them to our office for storage. I have a "good" place picked out for storage (in my office).

I was sweating bullets for a while .... too old to start over now.

I'm already there with 7 cores, more to add.

I've added 5 of the 8 machines in my office at work. I'll start moving the home machines to port 100 when I get home in a couple of hours.
