I have left the engineering field for teaching and am finding life way more fulfilling. Good luck to you! You are completely qualified and will definitely find new employment.

I'm pretty confident I'll be back working before the severence check is used up. This market isn't like the last time I was unemployed. The economy is doing okay right now and my leaving the company was more from their need for someone more of a classic engineer with all the paperwork showing that they were rather than someone like me who picked up the skills and the education without the paperwork backing that up. I've already applied for five other positions since I got home. The last time it was ten weeks before I even saw five positions to apply for. Thanks, Felix.

You spend all that time away from home on a project for the company, then they don't need you any more. I understand the ebb and flow of contracts and how sometimes painful decisions must be made, I am just sorry it was you whose number came up. Good luck on your search. With your resume' something likely will turn up soon. That’s a shame, Larry. You spend all that time away from home on a project for the company, then they don’t need you any more.
