-- 12 February 2007 [Monday] Finally found out about the re-org at work today. A lot of new managers and I'm reporting to Kiersten Grey now so that works out fine by me. I wish I would have had an offer for a manager position, but no such thing. If I would have stayed in the Services team I am sure I would have been offered it, but who would have known things would change so much within the 6 months since I left. Found out that they are reducing our 401k matching as well, which is a bummer, but also told we would get a small bonus (which will really just offset our reduced 401k match).

We'll see. -- 05 February 2007 [Monday] Nothing much today. Came into work as usual. Keegan and I had to stop in the morning to pick up a snack for his school, as it was his snack duty for one day this week. We ended up with cinamon graham crackers. Eric found out over the weekend that his boss OK'd for him to work remote back in NC, so he's supposedly aiming to be back in NC the first week in April. We'll see how that goes. I offered to help him drive a vehicle back bu...
