My complete apologies to BRTD then. Misinterpreted his comment earlier.

Nice. Remember: Be relaxed yet professional, prepare a couple of questions to ask them as well, and don't mention women's feet.

Well some good news. I got offered a temp position that will allow me to extend my employment until July 14. After which I can get the same severance package/etc., I also get to keep my benefits.

Obviously not permanent but for now it's something.

Also there was only 70 of these positions offered to over 500 people being let go, obviously not everyone applied...but still I feel a bit valued.

This was like a BushOklahoma update roller coaster - except, you are actually competent and the job was real.

Not to brag or anything but I effectively made the cut three times, the first extension only had enough spots for about 20% of the spots eliminated (not everyone applied of course), and then earlier this year I was offered one by my supervisor who told me not to talk about it to the rest of the team because not everyone was offered one...and now my supervisor today told me the same. I suspect that Bushie would not survive even once, much less three times.

I do recall once he stated he was fired for taking an unscheduled break once that his supervisor gave permission for...as usual I'll doubt that was the actual cause.
