Subject: closing the Research Department to save money

julietscity: hi

romeobanglore: hello

julietscity: your dinner time now, right?

julietscity: hello

julietscity: hello

romeobanglore: yes

romeobanglore: hello

julietscity: so you will leave in one minute

julietscity: why so slow

romeobanglore: maybe...but I am not that hungry...I had snacks with Ojas in the evening

julietscity: ok... how much time do you have?

julietscity: feeling better now? still a bit frustrated?

romeobanglore: I don't know...but let us not waste our available time!

julietscity: what you want ... means don't waste time

romeobanglore: I am reading your mail...and I rule out your suggestion to get another job in India

romeobanglore: yes...better

romeobanglore: I feel sad not just because people have left, but also because I have not got the job I want yet

romeobanglore: one more thing, tomorrow and day after tomorrow, there is a power shutdown in our company for maintenance, so I may not be able to open my computer...I don't know exactly

julietscity: go to have fun this weekend ... maybe you will feel better

romeobanglore: my project manager told me today that he will try to contact one of his old colleague working in Philips Germany and try to connect me with him

romeobanglore: that is good news, he is sympathetic to me

julietscity: but what did your boss say

romeobanglore: I was going to write a mail about all these, I just checked out the yahoo and found you

julietscity: did he reply

romeobanglore: hello

romeobanglore: are you there?

julietscity: yes... you write too much so I take the time to read

romeobanglore: he can't change anything...it is the Americans who invest money in his company...I will forward his mail to you

julietscity: I mean he must be worried about your decision

julietscity: He must wonder if you will stay with him or leave

romeobanglore: it's over...the contract with his company and us is canceled

julietscity: If he knows that everyone in your group will go to another company, he may feel sad

romeobanglore: I sent you the mail

julietscity: ok...so... If you or anyone also leaves the company, you do not have to repay under the canceled contract...

romeobanglore: yes, he is sad, but he can't change anything...the investors decided to cut the expenditure and new work

romeobanglore: Americans are very much money-oriented

romeobanglore: 3 months notice still I have to give...

romeobanglore: or the basic salary of the remaining months

julietscity: yes...they are... That's why they demand efficiency

romeobanglore: maybe

julietscity: but others still have to pay

romeobanglore: it's just like closing the Research Department to save money now

romeobanglore: the rules of the company remain the same if we leave without 3 months notice, we have to pay some amount

julietscity: yes...closed departments in the US or around the world now seem to have the same situation

romeobanglore: maybe

julietscity: but you notified 3 months ago

romeobanglore: but the news is that high-tech companies will survive this downfall

julietscity: Is your department R & D?

julietscity: today you posted your resume on Yahoo, do anyone else reply to your email

romeobanglore: hello

romeobanglore: not yet, I think...to some companies I have sent emails directly...the auto-response has come...that's all

julietscity: I think maybe some hunters will find your resume

romeobanglore: can you go to careers.yahoo.com?

romeobanglore: http://careers.yahoo.com/

julietscity: yes...I can... for what?

romeobanglore: the website is down, I think...please check it out

julietscity: down?

romeobanglore: I don't know

romeobanglore: is this site working?

julietscity: NO...my server couldn't find it now...

romeobanglore: ok

julietscity: the careers.yahoo.com site is down...then how did you post your resume?

romeobanglore: it was not down in the morning! you also saw my resume

julietscity: yes...that's why you can go there to receive your mails, right?

romeobanglore: yes

julietscity: hmmm...how come? I didn't get any news about Yahoo has a virus again!

romeobanglore: oooooohhh! there is a problem!!! oooooh

romeobanglore: I forgot to change my e-mail address!

romeobanglore: it is still and it is not working..............ooooooooooooooh

julietscity: hahahah...yes...I saw you use operamial.com, but I also sent you mails there

romeobanglore: it is serious...I have to delete some emails from there

julietscity: yes...you had better delete all the mails...now

julietscity: so...say bye-bye now?

romeobanglore: it is all your mails

julietscity: it's ok...I have saved them here

julietscity: and I also printed them out sometimes

romeobanglore: no...I have already gone to opera mail now...I can delete while chatting

julietscity: hahahah...ok...great

julietscity: hey...I still can go to check your resume now...it's not down

romeobanglore: ok...I am deleting them now

romeobanglore: che! I forgot such an important thing

julietscity: so...the account still works...that keeps people to send you a reply

romeobanglore: resume.yahoo.com is working...but career.yahoo.com is not working...I have to go there to see if there are any mails for me

romeobanglore: resume.yahoo.com is only for seeing my resume

romeobanglore: I hope so

julietscity: honey...one important thing now

julietscity: My grandma just passed away...

julietscity: so...I have to go to her house with my family...

romeobanglore: hmmm...this Monday my parents had called from home and they told me to be very careful...they said that this week is not good for me

romeobanglore: ok

julietscity: so...

romeobanglore: May her soul rest in Peace
