    Give it a week and a half and you'll be out of yours. Darn recession!

    No, I'm pretty safe. They've factored in the recession by cutting their co-op numbers by 3/4!

    That's lucky. My company aren't taking on anymore co-op students, and are looking to move out of Ireland...

    Intel indeed...

    They cut numbers because of the recession or because I was such useless co-op there last year!? :pac:

    I heard that Intel weren't hiring anybody alright...and with Nortel now in trouble in the US...hmmmmm...the joys of not being on co-op anymore ..


    btw...should this not be in the co-op thread?

    Yeah, I've been hearing from one of your former co-op colleagues just how little the four of ye did! :D Messing, but she did say there wasn't enough work for the four of ye. So, now it's just me and her, and then by March it'll be just me. :(
