Shannon Burke Show Listening Thread (week of 3/19/2012)

I've largely been taking a layoff from Bubba. The show is listless now.

[iobane]

State cut our budget but not any other court agency and hr is asking if anyone wants to take voluntary layoff or reduction in hours before they start making decisions on how to handle the cuts.

[Cpt. Mcgillicutty]

how does that work?

I was wondering the same thing.

[iobane]

Basically I make it less likely for anyone else I work with gets laid off.

[Cpt. Mcgillicutty]

So does that mean you are basically "taking one for the team"?

Sounds like me with Stern

[iobane]

Yep taking one for the team. I'm the lowest paid employee and I'm probably the most valuable but I have offers elsewhere and am the most likely to be able to find work. Everybody is pretty much 20 years my senior.

Wow, that's very noble of you. I guessing your someone in your late 20's possibly early 30's and doing something like that is rare these days. Good luck on those potential leads. This will come back on the good for you.

Didn't think of that, but I think he works in the State legal field and I believe they frown on extortion, even if it's K5

Maybe something like a "Hey how bout a going away present ($$$$)" iggy iggy nudge nudge

[milkman]

Got busy at work, then my home PC was acting up, wouldn't load any internets pages.
