08:02 IsambardPrince; It will compete with housing and farmland.

08:03 IsambardPrince; I wonder if there's a particular way in which the expansion of a forest preserve district would benefit me.

18:56 schestowitz[TR2]; The term is used in all walks of life, from football to the workplace. It is a very old term that simply means "we have no work for you to do".

18:56 schestowitz[TR2]; In ideal situations, an employer will always have work on the plate for their employees. A constant stream of work is needed to keep the payroll machinery running.

18:56 schestowitz[TR2]; But sadly, in many environments that stream no longer exists. Sometimes that is due to mismanagement, sometimes it is due to outside events, and sometimes it is due to the larger economy. In IBM's case it is often due to all three conditions.
