Sigh.
To Troy Tate: I’m guessing this was no easy nor trivial decision to make, but would love to know more to put it into context. Enjoyed your blog though: very good observations throughout. Thanks for posting.

I definitely understand the serving more with less idea. In fact this past April I wrote [A href="http://itknowledgeexchange.techtarget.com/it-trenches/doing-less-with-less-the-glass-is-the-wrong-size/"]Doing less with less – the glass is the wrong size![/A]. Maybe the UT group reviewed what folks were doing and just thought they were overstaffed? … yeah… like any IT group would say they have too many people ;)
