Sad news! Good luck Texrat! I'm changing my job next week too (but at least voluntarily).

The NDA probably covers some years or more after he loses his job...

Sorry to hear that, Texrat. As usual, the people at the top have no idea what's going on.

So, one less insider.

Sorry to hear that. It had been a pleasure reading your insider views. Good luck Texrat.

Sorry to hear that too.

I just got laid off too (Lehman Brothers) and do understand how it feels to go through a lay-off. Allbest to you Texrat and always think that this is going to bring change for the better.

Good luck Texrat, hopefully things will work out as far as a new job is concerned...its always scary job hunting especially with the economy as weird as it is now.

Thanks for the support all.

No luck with the jobs Quim has mentioned; I would have to relocate and I can't.

And Mara: I did not see that many jobs on the NSN external site (I don't know if I can apply for internal) but I did find one I can do in Site Engineering (database work). I will update my resume and apply.

My main concern is matching my current pay and benefits. History and the economy tell me to expect a 30% cut or more...

Good luck, Texrat. It was a pleasure to hear your riddles under the Connecting People flag.

I read somewhere that the only regrets people have on their deathbeds are the risks they didn't take.
