LAYOFF....#4

Well today marks the 4th layoff since February 2007. I somehow surived another round. So that is a huge blessing.....

After each layoff all my builder buddies and I say they cant get any smaller... but we were all wrong. They laid 15 builders off (1/3 of all builders), gave our Divison Managers a demotion, and laid off some more office staff. I just hate when they do the layoffs it just makes me sick to my stomach and it makes me really appreciate my job.


On a brighter note.... Liz and I used some gift cards and wedding money and bought a Wii on Sunday. It was fun to spend money on something fun instead of China, Crystal, or random kitchen supplies.

This weekend we also took a road trip to Waco and watched the mighty sooners.


Well I hope all is going well,

Steve
