It makes sense though if it's true. It's the end of the quarter. Isn't that when decisions are made? Is there anyone else to cut loose though?!? Ohhhh. Maybe the abundancy people?!?! Jk. Those are or next EVPs.

@freelance 1 I don't want to be that "uh, actually" individual but, actually..even if you login to the company wifi, there are no personal logins, there maybe unique ids to per universal logins but ultimately there isn't a way to track/identify a single user. The whole point of fishbowl is to express/vent/talk about whatever industry/non-industry related topic a person wants 😏. Sooo there it is..😉😉😁😁
