The answer to all these questions is "we just dont know", but if your company is downsizing there is something you can do to show that you are someone they should keep around?

I am part of the project management office at my company and I hear the term roadblocks all the time. Cant wait till the next meeting (this afternoon actually) when I can ask them if they really see the problem as a roadblock, or is it just a hurdle? Hi Patricia: What an encouraging message this is.
