No Limit to How low They Will Go
After many years of service they fired me and made up the worst excuse in the world as to why so they didn't have to pay me a severance package. I had to actually call HR to hear their reason because the fake (in the closet) manager DK told me he... — read more

Ugly Week Ahead
Next week will see more adjustments being made to "headcount" across the campuses. Out of one side of their mouth they tell us about "job of choice" while our of the other side they're constantly harping on "headcount." They don't care about real... — read more

After 15 years putting my life into this company, today is the day I finally found out it's my turn to leave. Our team in re-entry was "unofficially" informed by our manager that the company will announce this week that tenured ERs will be asked to... — read more

1 question at UoPX is, how big is the severance and where do I sign? #2 question is, how do I get out of the parking structure without a badge?
Well kids, the train is pulling into the station. Most will be getting off at this stop. From what we gathered in Fridays meeting, pretty much
every department will be spun down until they can sell off the profitable portions of this so called school. A disconnect order for several thousand arrived on my desk on Valentine's day. How ironic that they would show this type of love to the... — read more
