my heart goes out. they tried to and succeeded in most places with outsourcing to India the presentations centers.
but at Lazard, they were so bad they closed down after two years,
so i was set, 70k, great benefits, the works, then God laughed and I got a head injury :)
8 years later working on Staten Island in dispatch center as supervisor,. Money is Very good for Staten Island and fiance makes good dough like i said, so we’ll be ok.
i’m 47. at 35 i was going to conquer the world.
It conquered me lol.
I like that line from Gladiator. It fits to more than death.
“Death laughs at men. All a man can do is laugh back”
You could put “life” in there too.
i dont let the leftover symptoms destroy me and I just try to laugh at the whole absurd thing that doesn’t make any sense or have any point unless God is real.
I’m not taking any chances :)
LOL When I was 35, I was fit enough for football and the world was my buffet. Now I'm 52. The world's not only conquered me, it's got my head on a pike outside the gates. Quick story on outsourcing: About a dozen years ago, I was in between gigs and got picked up as an internal help desk analyst for a regional telecom firm - one of the 'Baby Bells'. I was told it was contract-to-perm. After a few weeks there, I discovered
I was misled.. I was brought in to backfill for some of the IT staff who were getting ready to fly to India for a month to train their own replacements. Yep, imagine being outsourced and forced to train the guy taking your job as a condition of severance pay. Well, I started to circulate my resume again, locked onto a good onsite gig, and they day before I left, they had to scuttle the whole outsourcing deal because the group they hired in India quit en masse after being trained and took jobs with another IT firm across the street! LOLOL Karma is a bitch, and she had PMS that week. I just smiled at management as I left with a look like, "Cheerio, SUCKERS!" LOL
