Just when you think it can't get any more wretched

It has just been announced that all budget cuts and layoffs at the University have been decided, "but there are technological problems within the Human Resources Office that are so severe they have not been able to move forward with the decisions." This whole situation makes me angry and sick to my stomach. It's bad enough that none of this is happening because the University is performing badly, and that we are ultimately paying for the idiocy of the financial geniuses who run this country. Now they have to prolong the uncertainty because of technological problems? It's maddening.
