Job Hunting

Well, I'm back at looking for a job and I have to say that I'm done looking solely for "permanent" positions.  My last two positions were "permanent".

They each lasted 8 months before the company downsized because they were unprofitable.

So, after taking a cut in pay to be at a "safe" job and working tons of overtime to proven how invaluable I am, I get cut- both times- because of "economics".

It just goes to show you that there are no more "permanent" jobs anymore.  You're going to lose that job at some point.  Contract jobs, you just know when and can plan accordingly.
