Yeah, that's going to leave a mark

All of the recent reshuffling of the suites last week apparently was done mostly to put all of the people who are not members of the DC Bar in the same room. Tonight, the reason for that became apparent, as they all got the ax. The project managers closed the doors to the suite, told everybody to take all their stuff home and check their email. Yeah, you're fired. About 40 people, I guess, and while it does not signal that the end is near, it does signal the beginning of the end. These people were doing responsiveness review. That means we're done with that now. Still an unknown (at least to me) amount of first review on potentially privileged stuff, I guess, and then an unknown amount of privilege log material. So we could have a ways to go. Not that anyone will tell us.

In any event, I think Rod Steward was wrong (that includes Sheryl Crow, who did a great cover of the song, and Cat Stevens, who wrote it):


No, this was just the first cut. Only about 40 people gone, and still nearly 400 left on the project. The deepest cuts are yet to come. I think Mick had it right about what happened tonight:
