I’m good for a while, but time passes quickly!

[Lazamataz]

You guys already know, but I’m taking the occasion to ping you, solely to bump the thread. :)

Laz, are you in any position to retire?

[Jonty30]

I have need of a man with your skills for my organization.

Do you knkw where I can find my organization?

[IllumiNaughtyByNature]

Based on the headline alone, I guessed you worked at a Walmart in Portland. lol

For freelancing;
Web and/or App dev is the huge right now so I would focus on learning some front end dev while looking/listing for backend stuff. There are quite a few freelancer sites that you can list your experience/services on.

Warning on front end web stuff. It changes fast.

For a new job?
I have no idea but there are websites for that too.

I chased jobs from FL to MO once. Moved back to FL and now I’m back to MO for he rest of my days.

If do want to or end up having to move, try to find a spot just outside the metro area of a mid sized city in a red state. Might be some conservative techies there already.

I gotta say I was a top rated engineer ($$$$$) when I got laid off at 57 years of age. I couldn’t find jack in my field - that would pay anything. Did my own business for a bit (still high tech), but got beat out by India.. Retired early, help a neighbor with his business and my son with his...

Good luck! That new door is opening

[MileHi]

Glad you got some heads up, bro. Best of luck to ya.

Why not be a social media influencer?

[Cronos]

Try Sabre technology and also other areas in the travel industry

[toddausauras]

I hope your search yields great results. You may end up with a better job once all is said and done.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Maybe see if Twitter is hiring. :)

Seriously, good luck buddy.

Being laid off from the Mega-Corp was hard on our wallet but did open up doors because I had to get creative.

Now if only the government would stop slamming those doors on my fingers....

DEY TOOK MAH JOB!

Yon't mine?

[Tijeras_Slim]

When the place I worked for closed unexpectedly I just changed my pronouns to Bum/Hobo and it worked out fine.

[mairdie]

Good luck. You’re already using contacts, which is always so recommended. And proactive is smart.
