DEY TOOK MAH JOB! DEY TERK MEH JERB! D'TERK M'JERB! DURKA DURKA DERRRR!

DEY TERK UR JRBS

So, a layoff is imminent. My company, a health insurance company, is getting rid of a large bread-and-butter portion of their focus, namely Employee Group insurance. That's the health insurance component that employers give employees.

Guess what area of the company I work for?

The layoff could occur as soon as 60 days from now, or (at max) 6 months from now.

So my manager, who really loves my work, gave me a inside-scoop that our area (Producer Services, basically sales commissions for agents) is going away. I think I better proactively move.

So, any Freepers who need a skilled web- and winforms-developer who is an expert in SQL, please contact me.

A little of what I offer:

• C# and VB.NET, both classic and Core. Standard apps, console apps, web apps, you name it. Restful API's.
• SQL at an expert level, with emphasis on SQL efficiency.
• Informatica 10 and earlier editions (that's a publish/subscribe bus).
• Dynatrace for Application Performance Monitoring, including Magellan (which allows Dynatrace to performance monitor down to the SQL level).
• I'm very back-end but if you are willing to give me the chance, I could see picking up front end (Angular / React).

If you know someone who is in the industry in a hiring authority (or even not!), ping them to this thread.

This is a difficult time for even experienced developers. There are lots of people from Facebook, Twitter, Amazon, and excetera who are very skilled and who are competing with people like me. However, I got something they don't: I'm not a liberal woke a-hole. :)

I know you probably don’t want to hear it, but from a guy who went from a partner/executive vice-president of operations of one of the largest imprinted sportswear companies in the southeast to jobless and homeless in three weeks...it does get better. You never know where God is going to put you.

Sometimes you have to move from the beach to the high desert to get closer to God. Who knew?

You are doing the absolute right thing...networking is your best tool to find a position that is just right for you.

Best of luck, Laz. My prayers are with you.
