i do need get focused here soon though. contract at work is running out soon. time to move on but no idea which direction to go after almost 10 years here.

had some thing pop up for a sales job for automotive software for dealerships. kinda seems like a solid gig. 40% travel rest is work from home.

Can you market the skills youve gained at that company? Freelance/contract.

not sure. i mean exposure to different programs and whatnot helps.

looking back i got comfortable, should have left 5 years ago, now seems i wasted a lot of time.

however, i now see i really really dont feel like working for companies anymore after my 2 months being laid off. i dont get the allure some people have for working in the corporate structure. like someone in my group here now is one of those types where all the bitch says is corporate buzz words and gets off on it. like wtf you need to just go away lol

corporate jargon makes me sick... it just sounds to me like people trying to sound smarter than they really are.

Anyway, freelance/contracting is pretty awesome if you can find your niche.

either they're trying to sound smart or just enjoy swallowing that corporate punch too much and are actually dumb enough to buy into it.

either way most people are fuckin idiots in my opinion

contract work does sound nice. dont have to be a part of anything just go in knock it out and get paid.

As long as you don't do contract work for a hospital....

Everyone of them is a slow payer, they cut checks a few days after the end of the month.

actually, a friend did offer to go do IT at one of the major hospitals here in the city.

i have never done IT but it pays more than my current job and they train you lol

he said put in an application and he can get me in. not sure thats what i want to do though.

KingZTX · 03-04-2020, 04:26 PM

Absolutely hate hospitals. Been in them too many times.

My three exams are through. Time to bring Colorado to Waco

Hospitals are a hit and miss. I worked with the IT guys from 2 major hospitals in the LA area. One of them, they were paid very well. The other hospital, well, lets just say that the way they value their people leaves alot to be desired.

Ive been lurking the forum for a few years, but decided its about damn time I become more active. Love the welcome tag

You need some roasting just for GP. Hope you have a thick skin and a flame suit handy for when it happens.
