Gee whiz, where does the time go when you’re laid off and have an extra 8-10 hours a day?? Well, it’s been a bit more than 2 months since my last “blog” entry regarding Unisys/unemployment/etc. Not much to update, getting a tiny bit discouraged now since my severance “pay” was up a week ago (due […]
Unisys
Part 5: My career at Unisys and the constant fear & threat of layoffs.
Well, it’s been 2 months since my last “note” (blog entry). Thought I would update everyone. Here is what I wrote as a status update on June 19th: ‘Too wiped out to type anything today, still wrapping things up from yesterday’s news. Will add long winded boring blog entry later.

28 yrs, 9 months. Couldn’t they wait until I got my 30 yr plaque?
