The good news for me is that the company is not looking to grow in our area so they will not be replacing either one of those offices any time soon.

what business? company name? just curious.

and for the record, since being back in the NoVA area, it really doesn't look or seem like the recession has hit here at all. traffic is still terrible, restaurants are still overpacked. I drove past a bunch of places (on my 1000 roadtrip from florida) that really aren't doing so well.

I honestly think some companies are just using this as cover to fire people/cut jobs they've been thinking about cutting anyways.
