[Weapon X]

Get the fuck out!!!! WX - I'm in AZ now, but born and raised in Tacoma. Lived in Seattle too. God I miss that town.

Seattle's a great town. I've lived here for over 9 years now, and I don't plan to leave. The mountains and the water make for a killer combo.
Now if the M's start kicking Yankee ass I'll get happy again.

That sucks bro. I do some tech support and I have to deal with end users sometimes. Fortunately, I don't have to do phone support. I just do e-mail support.

Ah man, the M's are breakin' my heart!!! My dad still lives in Gig Harbor, has season tickets. Not sure the old man will survive another post-season loss to NY. We shall see.

Anyway, good luck with the job bro. Might check out some contract gigs til you can find something permenant.

Keep dreaming and hoping!
Sorry for your bad luck but it always leads to better luck. Hang in there.

Where's the "any" key?

Well, the other shoe finally dropped.

In my company's third round of layoffs, along with 60% of the remaining employees, I was laid off.
Decent severance package amounts to roughly two months before the money starts running out, so I can't really complain. But it's still a weird thing to suddenly be unemployed after three years with a great group of co-workers.
Unfortunately, this also means the end of my company-sponsored gym membership.
Looks like it's time for a little vacation and then a serious-ass job hunt in a crap technical economy.

Right there with you brother. I still have a job, but not for long. they are letting us leave during the day for interview. I had one today.

Damn... Sorry to hear that Weapon. Good luck to ya brother.

Someone gave me a red colored Karma for this thread.
WTF does that mean?

Assisting someone with the commercial microwave to heat their breakfast taco does not count as tech support.
