Former Rackspace employee turned Geekdom leader Lorenzo Gomez is reaching out to help those affected by cloud company s recent layoffs.
San Antonio-based Rackspace announced the cuts, which resulted in the termination of about 10 percent of the workforce, on Thursday amid a multimillon-dollar restructuring plan.
Gomez started at Rackspace in 2001, when the company was in its infancy. Lorenzo then moved on to Geekdom, San Antonio s largest coworking space, where he was named CEO. Gomez is currently a chairman of Geekdom and is the author of No. 1 Amazon Bestseller The Rack We Built.

Helping Redline Celebrate
Thanks to our photographer, Lorenzo Gomez, who was on the scene to catch the joy and fun of being together again at Redline in DTLA.
The bars and clubs have had a struggle getting through COVID. Many of them did not make it, and some are hanging on by a thread. Bars and clubs can be a great place to feel a part of your community. Below is a message from the folks at Redline: To our friends and family:
After almost 5 years of providing DTLA with a safe space and a home for all, Redline was closed for over a year, due to the COVID 19 pandemic. We are happy to be back and will continue to raise funds for our Redline family so please pitch in if you can!

Before he was a leader of San Antonio s largest food bank, Eric Cooper grew up wondering what happened to his dad. In this episode of TPR s storytelling podcast, he goes on a journey to find out, followed by a collection of other stories from the Worth Repeating archives.
SPECULATION is growing that government could introduce tougher rules to combat Covid-19. During the third national lockdown people are required to stay indoors unless leaving for work or essential shopping. They can also meet one other person outside and exercise. But, according to the Daily Telegraph, the prime minister spoke with senior ministers on Sunday to evaluate whether the current lockdown rules were working as coronavirus case numbers – as well as the death toll – continues to soar. Tougher restrictions could include people having to wear masks in outdoor places – such as queues for supermarkets – as well as stopping people meeting one other person outside from a different bubble.
FOXES have taken advantage of the peace and quiet of lockdown by getting adventurous in an Old Town neighbourhood. With fewer people out and about, the wild animals have been spotted on roofs and running along garden fences in broad daylight. Like so many others Lorenzo Gomez has been spending more time at home during Lockdown 3 and has started to notice more wildlife in the area. But he was taken by surprise when he saw a couple of foxes living the high life. He told the Adver: “We do get a lot of wildlife around here but it’s unusual to see a pair of foxes at 11.30am climbing on top of houses, running around in our gardens and along our fences.
