Working -- for the moment

I picked up a contract job and started working on Wednesday. It's a very nice building in Cupertino, cool valley software company, a year or two ago every finance person and software engineer would be thrilled to get an interview there. Now the company is in the jaws of THE software giant, the shark, the one ate up two other cool valley software firms in the last three years. This comes after a whistle blower caused the company to issue revenue restatements last year, no financials were released for two fiscal years, company stock was delisted. Now we are crunching numbers to make the company look presentable in front of the shark. But hey, it's a job and it pays.
