Thank you. We lost four out of eighteen. Tearful announcement by our
manager. I guess they've got two weeks to find another position in the
company if there is one. Some sort of severance.

The rest of us needn't worry about layoffs at least for another year, I guess.

Lord, have mercy. Comfort and strength to those facing transition to
something else.
