For those keeping up with my blogs, you know that my company is looking to downsize my department.  The 8 of us must reapply and interview for 5 roles.  The interviews are supposed to take place this week (though the schedule hasn't been published yet) and Friday the 28th will be the last day for 3 people.

I ought to be sitting here thinking how cool it is that in 8 days, I'll be playing Halo 3.  Instead, I just feel like I have to puke.  I feel sad and disappointed, yet if I'm going land one of these roles, I have to appear upbeat and enthusiastic.

Get the other's addresses. Obtain a tire stem removal tool. The night before, drive around and remove the tire stems from their tires. Leave the tire stems and one can of Fix-A-Flat on their hood. When you get to work, tell the interviewers that you set up a problem solving exercise for your teammates and the next four that arrive will be hired. :D Good luck, bro.
