Not trying to be a smart a-s or anything but I do have a question. If you know EM isn’t what it once was and that they plan on cutting headcount over the next few years what are you going to do about it? Are you going to sit around and hope you’re not impacted? Or are you planning to move on? Realistically those are the only choices you have.
