Shouldn't the Zit be done with its New York contract by now? At 1 mil LOC per hour, you figure the code should be in a FedEx package on its way back to the state parole board by now. By the way, if I were a prisoner in the state of New York, I think I would be quite nervous about the Zit working on computer code that will be used in managing my parole. ROFLMAO!!! God....what a scam!

All: Employee reductions and facilities. As of June 30, 1998 ZIT has 161 employees, down from 246 in December. They announced a layoff in January of 46 employees ... and since then another 39 employees have left the Company. This should reduce costs by a million or so for the quarter. File under Management Stupidity! Facilities. ZIT's lease expired in March '98 on their Taj Mahal in Fremont. At the time, I incorrectly predicted that ZIT would move to a smaller facility. Instead they signed a new five year lease for $990K per year. Just a few months later, ZIT is trying to sub-lease the building or cancel the lease! For short sellers ... management is our friend<g>!
