About time. Now if this fiscal sense will finally spread to SF, I can start looking at real estate for prices around 1/10th their current rate.

"That same Friday, in Seattle, 150 Amazon.com (AMZN) employees were ordered to empty their desks and hand in their ID badges; they were then escorted from the building. They were given one or two months severance pay or the chance to stay on if their options vested within 60 days. One employee saw a female coworker break down in tears after hearing the news: She had planned her wedding for September, and was counting on the options to pay for it. But with more than 60 days to go before vesting, she was out of luck."
