Welcome to "Yuppyville". Where are you located and why are you in OP? Business? I work right off of I-435 and Roe.

The Sprint Penitentiary, oh I mean "campus" is located about 1/4 mile from my work. Nearly all my friends work or have worked for that mediocore empire.

I am staying at the Marriott Overland Park on Metcalf Ave. If you guys are doing anything this week let me know ( A welcome to Kansas/Missouri meet for cartis). My cell is 202-409-4900. In case you don't want to call long distance , the number to the Marriott is 913-451-8000. I am in room 1031 (thats right, Concierge Level. Thank God for a good gubment job). But it will be easier to catch me on the cell cause I am only in the room when I am sleep.

The training center where I am taking the class is off of College Ave on Indian Creek Pkwy.

I went to the mall across from the "Sprint City" last night to go to the movies. A few people in my class have worked for Sprint. One of the guys said they are about to lay off 500,000 people (that's right, a half of million) and outsource the jobs overseas. That truly sucks.

Someone is lying to you. They did lay off less than a hundred and outsourced the jobs (for our internal helpdesk) to India. Sprint only has 60 - 70 K total employees worldwide anyway. Layoffs are coming...prolly around 5-8 thousand when all is said and done.

I have to be at the airport around 6PM so I will probably leave the O.P. Area around 5 PM or so. So if we could do it one day during the week, that would be better.
