If weeks were keys, this would be in minor

It's a dreary day, probably rightly so. They're restructuring the department, causing a bunch of people to lose their jobs, and most of us are understandably frustrated. There's a little part of me that just wants to pretend things are going to stay as they are, but they're not. I want to pretend we won't move out of this office into the notoriously frumpy Garrett Mountain location, and I want to pretend the same people that are here now will be here when we get through this. But that's just not how it's going to happen. I know I'm lucky that my job is unaffected and that youth is on my side. But what's disheartening is the status of this industry and this country as a whole. The president of this company is eerily comparable to George W. in history, mentality and birth order. He might run us down, the same way W. did the USA. Today I imagined a near future when I would say goodbye and start a new life in France. Or maybe Geneva. Either way - somewhere where life is better lived...where we aren't just cogs in the wheel or accomplices in terrorist acts to others. Enough already.
