20/10: The end came and went.
Yes, I was laid off due to "lack of work in my area" - a work pipeline intentionally dried up by the folks on high.
Six of us, of note Sticks, Wheezy/UberGeek, and BJ included.
This sucks.
A lot.
Ten years at FDR and I juked every seasonal layoff and now I get nabbed here? At Kiewit? What hurts more is how much I cared for this company. I drank the koolaide, I was enthralled when the old timers who talked about how Pete built this company on the foundation of its people as the number one asset. How every other construction company has the same opportunities, equipment, and materials but we make the difference in the dedication, loyalty, and skills of our people. I believed in the sole purpose of Information Technology was to assist the field in making their lives easier and more streamlined. Increase the number of craft folk while decreasing the support staff needed. I loved our projects we worked on... I loved going out to the field to visit the job site where Krick's brother worked.
... and now this.
