Manager is pretty rattled

My manager just left. He seems pretty rattled. I guess he realizes that he is going to have to do his soon. He doesn't like this kind of stuff. I have seen him terminate one person since I have been here and that was pretty exceptional. He had to do something. Everyone else he has just let sit idle, worked with them or let them find a position in another group.

I don't think he is going to be in a good mood for the next while.

I need to work hard so he is not worrying about this project.

Friggin' Economic bubbles. They are great as long as you sell in time and you are a talented hard worker in a stable industry.
