[PLUG] Re: I just got laid off.
|
You guys might remember me - Rupert from England, who was in Philly a
few months ago (for a few months).
I've just seen your posts re losing jobs. Thought I'd write to send my
condolences.
I'm back in England now, but also without a job. Trying to get a
Linux/UNIX job with only home-based Linux experience is not proving very
sustainable. I will probably end up with a Netware or NT position with
UNIX as a side line!
It's interesting to see that both in the UK & US, jobs are now -
1) Harder to come by.
2) Harder to keep.
Good luck to you all!
