Farewell Luncheon

Today we had a farewell luncheon for three coworkers. Their contracts have not been renewed. One of the side effects from the offshoring endeavour. (Personally, I think I have between one or two years before my job is in danger...that's if I don't leave first.)

If you are a contractor you get paid a lot more than employees. And supposedly, the trade off is that you know the company can be let go at any time and no benefits to speak of. I could never contract. I don't like that level of uncertainty.
