Everybody at work went out to Applebee's for lunch today, all on the tab of the guy who fired us ;-) Not much else happened, and a few people have already started packing things up. Others are trying to keep at least a few projects at the site for a while, if only to justify our existence for the next month. I have mostly continued doing the same stuff I was doing before.
I don't know how long I'll stay there, but it's hard to say if my position will be kept around for more than the next two weeks. Fortunately, I did get a check in the mail today for another three weeks worth of pay. Too bad the Radisson parking lot was too busy for me to stop into TCF, and the TCF by Target was closed by the time I got there (and I didn't have a pen to use the ATM).
Shouldn't these people want my money? Bah.
Anyway, I suppose I'll have to take a half day at some point so I can drop by the U's career center to thumb through job postings.
Two of the guys at the site seem to be ready to start scheming about setting up a new business. They were both co-founders of Trillium, the company that was there before Adaptec bought them (hmm, Googling around now, I see that there are at least two tech companies using the name Trillium now, though I don't think they're related at all).
