Seriously, definitely worth a read if your into Valve games or even if you just use steam:

I'm probably getting laid off soon, and damn I wish I could find a job like that.

As soon as I saw the timeline of events and releases at Valve, I immediately scrolled right to the bottom. Did anyone else do this to see if the future's written?

Oh, Gabe's already talked about the future. They're working hard on "Ricochet 2" and have had the same team working on "Ricochet 2" for a long time and are making good progress.

On my current job, my new employee hand book is a black and white text only pad of paper full of legalese, confidentiality agreements, statements of inappropriate behavior, what my severance pay will be if I get fired or laid off, and other mundane topics.

This makes me want to have a conversation at the urinal.

I know I'll discover after its all said and done I should've been a nun.

For what its worth, Valve probably has one of those too.

Oh, Flamehaus. How I've sort-of missed you. But I'll be goddamned if I ever go back.

It says right at the start that it's on their intranet.
