Wednesday was day 1 of 18 without pay.
Luckily, I had some side computer work that netted me about 1 day’s pay.
Got a haircut. Got some business calling cards. Treated myself to an ice cream cone.
Didn’t play Wii at all during the day. Somehow I thought that’s all I’d be doing on these days.
Configured a jboss development environment in Eclipse on my wife’s computer.
While I was out of the office, they had a “reduction in force” of about 20% of our staff.
In terms of manpower we have now moved past “cutting to the quick” and have amputated up to the knuckles.
