Most days, Fen, not now though. More co workers and team mates going out in what I hope is the final round of cuts. But most days
What a moron.

Yes, final round is underway to meet the final commitment to the government. 4,000 total. Many through early retirement, many more like Mrs. Number 3 will be separted involuntarily.
