The biggest surprise of all

About 3 minutes ago the front end was called to the project manager's office for a mini-meeting with the CTO. He told us Friday would be his last day due to being laid off. Apparently they laid off the CTO in order to keep the developers. I can see this going terribly and
especially since now apparently Technology will report to the COO/CFO. I'm positive he'll care more about the money than the procedures.

I didn't even know you could lay off a Chief Officer. I forsee hard
times ahead.
