Why

Why am I awake right now? Hell if I know. I just woke up for some unknown reason and can't fall back asleep. So I got up and checked my email since I forgot to all day. Nothing much to report on that. This week is going to be awful, I have to do something I'm not looking forward to at work. It seems with budget cuts we are going to have to elminate some student worker positions, at least for the summer, but some will be permenent. We won't have a summer help desk over at the Kauffman Center, so no jobs there until fall, and we really only have need for one or two students this summer. Our lab will be no longer staffed the whole time it is open because we are moving to an automated printing system based on active directory student accounts and putting in cameras. This will save us a lot of needed money, but means we have to let go of some very dedicated and talented people. This has been the best team I have ever worked with in the past 3 years. It is going to hurt to see some of these people go, but what else can you do? It's our job, and Chad and I just have to make the tough decsions about who stays for the summer and who goes. It does not make for happy bedtime thoughts. If ever I needed someone to take my mind of things, it's now.
