Thomas Kopczynski • hey dude

You • Yeah I think i'm ready for my next rotation I saw through the PCA that we needed to fill that required my efforts and i've been working on documenting my work and transferring knowledge with the expectation to be in my next rotation in a couple of months...

Thomas Kopczynski • whats the pca??

Thomas Kopczynski • typically wont impact fcgs
but depends
have u seen any ominous afternoon meetings for yur dept?

You • yeah just now
there was one
a webcast for 15 mins

Thomas Kopczynski • hmmm
in 15 mins?

You • it started at 2:00 and ended at 2:15

Thomas Kopczynski • what did theyu say

You • it was regarding the layoff stuff
the person that sent me the article yesterday, his dad has been at ford for 20 years
i need to get a list of my accomplishments during my time here cuz they asked us to stay working remote this week
and expect emails from HR
kinda scary ngl
i should have been keeping a track of things ive done as i was doing it and built up the list tbh

Thomas Kopczynski • damn ok
expect emails from hr is ominous, but usually fcgs are not impacted
so fingers crossed

You • Any suggested measures? I like Ford

Thomas Kopczynski • i would measure yur story throughput and value delivery

You • We'll see what happens
but honestly i did good and hard work
vivek came in took lots of credit
and discredited me
from there it was like whatever man
i did all the work
i stepped up took ownership
they wouldve needed 3 ppl
to do my work
ramesh is the best point of contact
to truly understand my efforts
one of my colleagues just told me
vivek said that i didnt contribute anything
we laughed
all i know is I did good work so whatever happens, happens
i know what ive done and how much it was and how much value it was
ill be okay
