The Personally Discovered Joys of Being Unemployed

I have a degree in Computer Science and have been working in IT for over 25 years. I have no issue holding a job and neither do the people close to retirement in my company - or any company I've been a part of. Don't make excuses for your own short comings. Good IT professionals who KEEP UP WITH TECHNOLOGY and simply solve business problems with little management overhead are in demand regardless of age. There may even be a time when you might have accept less money. It's part of the business. You're just as much a lazy ass as the OP. OP should not have made his employment issues a Republican problem. Perhaps I may have had more sympathy.

Blah, blah, blah, so sad, too bad, sux to be you <- the Libertarians interpersonal anthem.

You are a liar. IF you worked in IT you would know that what I stated and backed up with multiple links is a FACT.

So you expose yourself as either an imposture, a liar, an imbecile or a libertarian ideologue which is a combination of all the preceding.
 
Sounds like you suck as a software engineer. Otherwise, someone in IT would hire you. Not to mention, CUT IN PAY mean anything to you??? Why do you assume you should make more than a 23 year old? Do you need to be in IT? Sales? Wait tables? Fast Food? Your conservative friends are quite correct you lazy POS.

Do you have any clue what a dick you just made yourself out to be?

Any at all? I am almost 60 years old, in another couple of years and only 0.5% of all software engineers are over 60.

Did you read any of the several posts I put up on age discrimination in the software industry?

Did you read about my having just come off of disability, another big black mark for HR drones.

And your final conclusion is that I am being lazy, lol.


You are just another example of a Conservatarian self absorbed shit4brains whose entire values system is nothing more than a complex way of telling the world go to hell you dont give a shit.

Where do you live?
What Technology are y9u involved with?
What Industry are you in?

NY, NJ and many other Business Visa havens are dead for non-Indians.

LMAO. Ah OK. Instead of facing the music you just pull the liar card and the truth disappears. What languages are you proficient in?
 
Socialism is to blame, no future in it....
That is hysterical.

'Socialism is at fault' has become a one note symphony for ideologues on the right.
God you really are an idiot!
In your wildest Utopian dreams do you REALLY believe if you had been living in a Socialist country for the last forty years YOU would have gotten anywhere near a fucking 286?
The ONLY reason you were able to make money to support yourself sitting like a blob in front of a computer screen is because you have been living in a Capitalist society.
Ya I bet you would have REALLY got ahead living in fucking Russia or Cuba. Wise up asshole.
Turn your 286 off and go find any job you can. You 'claim' your (cough) "slipped disks" are no longer (cough) "slipped" anymore right? Then fucking head down to McDonalds and fill out an application.
Don't forget to get your 'man-bun' straight first.
Tell me DannysBoys, are you the kind of guy who believes most of what Bill Gates says about non-Indians?

You name it, I got it.
I also live in Nassau County and I have spent most of my career in the Financial Industry and every single person I know who have been a programmer since the early 80s has been unemployed since GW or is serving pizza.
Now answer my post.

Won't divulge where I live or the industry. Right now I am a contractor. But way back when I started out in C then moved to Visual Basic. By the late 90's I learned how to develop for the web with ASP, JavaScript. Since then I've moved onto .Net, JQuery, SQL Server, C#, some Java. Yes, I've seen jobs goto to India. No doubt it sucks. But it's been my experience that competent developers who write good code, regardless of age, are in demand. I've also witnessed the older a developer gets, the harder it is for him/her to change and learn new technology. It's a tough business with ever changing technology, demands and deadlines.

Trolls like him dont answer questions, they only ask questions to get you to waste your time.

If someone does not anwser your questions they are either engaging dishonestly in the conversation, are trolls or are too stupid to answer anyway.

Mainframes have a niche market in the IT world and you would know that if you were not a posturing fool who doesnt know a god damned thing about computers.
 
Oracle is Java based, which is very similar to C & C++ yeah? You might take a look at some other languages, I started with Basic, Pascal, C++, then later on learning JavaScript made learning PHP, Perl, even the Arduino fairly easy to pick up.

In other words, you're not in a Business Visa inundated region.

Jim, I lost my job on the day Obama was inaugarated in 2009, due to W's recession. I was 60 years old. I did contract work for three years at 2/3 my old salary and then even that dried up after about 3 years.

That new economy is a real shit-kicker. Once all of the manufacturing jobs are outsourced and the US working and middle class have been reduced to squabbling rabble, the mega-corporations which are too big to fail, can moved into the developing Third World economies they helped create for their future growth.
