Impending fucking DOOM
Being a state employee I have been well aware that the current economic situation in our state would result in the division I work for getting fucked. I was not how ever quiet prepared for the magnitude of being fucked over we were in store for. Both the Senate and the House have presented their proposed budgets and it is not looking good. Mind you, the state is so deep in the hole that hefty cuts were inevitable. However, one proposed budget will only fuck my division over royally. The other? Well that one will fuck us up so badly that at the meeting that was held the other day to explain to us lowly employees how fucked we were, the management could only tell for certain that it would be much worse the first and that they were not entirely certain how they could reasonably meet that level of mandated cuts.
Regardless of what budget gets passed layoffs will be coming, the number of which will depend on exactly how fucked we get by the final budget. And the worst of it? My division isn't even getting that bad compared some others. Elections and Archives for example will be hit really hard.
So this news has left my mood somewhat soured, as evidenced by sudden penchant for goddamned motherfucking profanity.*
Anyway, this really wasn't the post I had intended to make as my return to LJ, which I should get around to writing when I get back from visiting my mother this weekend, but I felt the need to vent a little.
*Actually, this kinda cathartic. Fuck, fuck, fucking fucker fuckidy fuck.
