I was bored in my retirement. I started last week lookin a job. Started work today. The jobs are there. Just look fer um.
Seriously where did you look? Been going through dice and monster and gotten to the point of looking on craigslist. Being unemployed is really freaking starting to tick me off.
I blame no one but the bill allowing jobs to be sent south and over seas. Name who youonto. Good people are sitting home while these very large corps are saving billions by farming IT over seas.
Updated Monster and Dice back in January. Congrats to you. Hopefully work will be coming soon to me as well.
I've seen too many jobs go over seas. Not only IT but also MFG. I know a bunch of guys who had come over from India to do work on IBM projects. They'd come over for 6 months then go back to India.
I think IT would be right up my ally... but I don't have the patience for school. I am much better "hands on". Being an addict... I may as well get paid for it!
IT is DEAD unless you are Indian, especially if your experience is heavy into the IBM mainframe technologies. Even the jobs that you are likely to find these days are short-term contracts.
I can't resist.... What exactly does India have to do with the North American Free Trade Agreement? If IT can be outsourced like that, then so can anyone else. They tried to do it here in PA with the nurses, and they only succeeded in unionizing the nurses. If only IT people would do that.....
I agree, that treaty, to the best of my knowledge only applies to North America. And I sometimes steal Canadian Jobs as a result of it (at least that is what Canadian Immigration said to me as the denied my access to their country again Yesterday, even though I spent the whole week there last week).
