I’ve been doing that for 10 years now. I hardly ever meet anyone else in my line of work (except at conferences). I get 5-6 calls per year from recruiters so I’m betting you won’t have trouble getting another job.
Thank you all for your good wishes and replies. I tried posting 5-6 h ago, but the post did not appear. I work in the academia in the environmental sciences. I live in the southwest. The problem is that we are dependent on the guvmint on funding. Right now, the gov’t is broke.
If I knew depending on the guvmint leads to weakness and bondage, I would have picked a different path. Even the private sector in our field depends on guvmint funding. I am trying to apply for some guvmint lab (but they are broke too).
In the past, I have had problems applying in the corporate world because of my Pile-High-and-Deep. Thanks guys for the monster.com suggestion. I’ve found several jobs that I can apply to.
I don’t want to put too much personal info here because the academia thinks this is a hate site. This is absolutely nonsense! Freepers are the salt of the Earth and the most honorable people in the entire planet!
Prayer sent.
I really can’t reccomend that movie highly enough. You should go rent it RIGHT NOW.
