According to the hourly forecast it is supposed to stop raining and the sun is supposed to come out a bit.

Accuweather also shows it clearing up soon, for a few hours at least.

I'll leave when I hear the sprinkling stop...

I'm skipping it. I live like 15 minutes away from them, and it's just still drenched here.

Sorry I could not make it. Anyone take any pics?

I'm not oncall next week and will definitely be able to make the meet in Beaverton. Hopefully everyone can make it. The weather is supposed to be good as well.

The go forward decision will be made in the next month. For now I'm working on getting the resume cleaned up and checking out the job market. They are saying we should have our jobs until 3/1/10 but if something good comes up then I'll take it.

It is a fair amount of notice but it still sucks. If I stay til the end then I will receive stay pay and a severance package. Of course a permanent job is better so I will be looking around.

did they tell you what the stay pay plus severance is? how many more months pay would that be? i hired some guys who were in your situation and just scheduled their start date for after the other job ended so they could keep the extra cash
