It was...bonkers to say the least. A year later I was laid off along with a lot of my coworkers due to the tech bubble bursting and our focus primarily on lasers and equipment related to fiber optics. @wgjhsafT sounds very much like my time at JDS Uniphase @Andrapos Yeah similar but we were on the chip manufacturing side for some of that stuff. The company is now Veeco but that was part of the older company's reorganization and sell off.
