The traffic on San Francisco bay area roads seems to have gone down quite a bit these days, especially in the last 3,4 weeks. I first thought it might be the Thanksgiving holidays, but there is probably more to it – the job layoffs! We seem to be bleeding hundreds of jobs everyday here.

I think this one is going to be lot more brutal compared to the tech bust in 2001/2002. Having gone through the pain ourselves back then, I can very well relate to the anxiety and uncertainty of those affected by these layoffs. It’s no fun.

Anyway, those people lucky enough to hold on to their dear jobs through these tough days will at least have less chaotic commute I guess!
