@JadeEJF -- I got laid off from my dayjob on January 3rd of this year, along with half the rest of the company (second wave dot bomb, anyone). By this time last year, we all knew it was coming and it certainly was a huge bummer during the holidays. But it ended up being a great thing to have happen -- because of it, TIG was able to migrate into this great new website! So things happen for a reason. I bet there's an awesome new opportunity awaiting you in 2008. Good luck!!
