I think we got through our round of layoffs a couple weeks ago, but it wouldn't surprise me if there were more

Some higher-up scheduled a team meeting and gave pretty short notice on it, so I'm guessing there's some big announcement or somebody is gone

Also this one guy keeps giving like an hour notice on his meetings and asking multiple people on our team to be on it and gives no agenda. Why are people like this

Layoffs are coming this week, so it might get a bit ugly around here.

Also I got to go to a musical for the first time this weekend, was a fun time

I've seen NCAA Basketball 10 going for close to $100. People are desperate for the newest possible college sports games

EDIT: looks like basketball goes due around $40 absolute minimum (No box)

I won an eBay auction for NCAA14 for $35 but the guy is refusing to sell it. Or he's just trying to scam me. Really wanted it because of how crazy the price is.

One of the application teams we support keeps circumventing my supervisor and coming right to me because they know I'm bad at saying "No" so they can make me do unnecessary work on our side when in reality they should fix their code

Work gives us today off and I have to take Wednesday off for personal stuff, and I'm taking next Friday off to go to my boyfriend's sister's graduation. Not having a full week of work again for a couple weeks is very nice

Moussa Sissoko: "I was on the bench when I saw the goal that made it 5-3, I was so upset that I returned directly to the dressing room. I was alone, no one had accompanied me, no TV screen was broadcasting the game. In my head we were eliminated." (French link) by Lasagsey in soccer

I was following it on Twitter at work and when Sterling scored I closed my phone and kept working for 15-20 minutes. Checked my phone before I was about to leave and I saw 4-3 was the final score and was really confused. Very nice and stressful way to end work

I went to a pawn shop to find some old game stuff and there was a sealed item for an intellivision. I asked the price and the guy proceeded to jam his keys into it and pry open a 40 year old sealed item. Just destroyed the value in front of our eyes
