Darn, prayers for your friend, Chris

 

Afternoon Woods! Tomorrow is my last day at IBM. Sounds like I'm not this is not the only cutting they will be doin.

"Job cuts may intensify as IBM plans to use AI to replace 30% of back office jobs. IBM CEO Arvind Krishna said he expects AI to impact at least 7,800 jobs at the company over the next five years."

Beth isn't back office but doesn't mean she immune when they start cutting folks.

My Dad is looking for a house in southern Colorado. He ain't got a whole lot of wiggle room if he wants to avoid a mortgage

 

Sorry to hear about your friend Chris.

 

Sorry to hear about your friend Chris, Chris. Good that you can be there for him even with your own struggles.

MarkyDos, how are they going to get AI to change out those servers? Might be time to go contract?

 

Damn, hate to hear that Markus. I hope you land on your feet. All this bad news is making me feel guilty. My VA rep sent me the proof of my Expeditionary medal, so joining the VFW. I'm in love with this place, so far. I finally feel like I'm home. Now, if my back would cooperate

 

Sorry to hear this Chris. Too much bad news of late! Thoughts and prayers to your buddy, and to you. Stay strong.

Congrats to you Marcus. You will enjoy! Hope the best for Beth. Maybe she will get lucky??

 

Its all cloud now & with the rumors of customers leaving I guess AI has less to do.

Chris, sorry to hear about your friend. But you being supportive means more than words can express.

 

The human race has become lazy. Living off grid is becoming more appealing
