So an interesting story has been unfolding for the past 3 or so weeks at work. The main customer we were working for decided to kill put our project on hold. It took them a few weeks to finally come out and say it, but they pretty much did kill it.

So, here we are, a bunch of engineers not really knowing what's going on or what's happening. The high brass are having meetings and talks and all of that other hoitie-toitie stuff that goes on in meetings like that, and we're basically sitting and waiting. My manager isn't too worried, though - we wouldn't loose our jobs over something this silly. Right?

This week the news comes in - We've got a new job: To take the product we've been working on, make a few minor changes to it, and change our group name. Not huge stuff, really. We will have to do a lot of redesigning, but it's nice to know that we won't have to start from the drawing board.
