Over 40 here. I just found a contract job after a year of looking. They have expressed interest at bringing me on. It it'll be at about half of what unmade at Cisco. I might not be able to afford to do it but In a a way I can't afford not to, either. I'll see what the offer is and hope it's something I can work with. My retirement is pretty much gone and I'll probably have to take the rest of it out to live in the new calendar year. Cisco is full of scumbag leadership and poor management. And the worker bees are the ones who pay the price.
Welcome to the new US of A, where you're expected to appreciate being well underpaid and stack yourselves on top of everyone in your family in a two bedroom flophouse. #thirdworld
