So,I've just been "let go" from my company after nine years......

HELP!

money's short so I won't last long without work, and I'm networking to everyone to be on the look out.

My job title was "Systems Engineer". Basicly networking, servers, desktop support.
I have my MCSE, A+, N+ and nine years customer service.

PLEASE, PLEASE email me with any leads, THANK YOU

Sorry to hear that! Will you relocate?



John

 

sunda, startribune. thats where you will find the best ones.

sorry to hear. happend to me once...havnt had a decent savings account since. I'm sure you will find somthing..it might take a month, but dont give up.

 

NO WAY!! Sorry to hear that man! You'll have to sell the PSP!!

After I got laid off up in Duluth, I ended up at Internet Broadcasting in Mendota Heights. Here is the page of their current job openings. You might be able to find something!

Here are a couple more relatively off-beat resources to help you find something.

http://minneapolis.craigslist.org this is where I found IB to begin with
http://www.simplyhired.com IMHO, the google of job search engines.

If you would like some beer PM me. (Hey hey hey, not EVERYBODY c'mon.)

 

Sorry to hear that! My dad got laid off in April and finally found a job. He was looking at a very similar position but he didn't have as much experience as you do. He went through a couple of different Job firms to help place him. The one that he got the job through is called Insight I think. Good luck, I'm sure you'll find a job soon!

 

hows the search going?

 

Thanks to all for the positives!
- draven, I'm actually alergic to beer, but am avial for whiskey shots! I will NOT be selling the Misstress... She was bought in cash and not an option. I DO have to very smart and cute children though that gotta bring top dollar......JK!!!!!
- jallamas, sadly I will not relocate as I have wife, kids, house and both extended families here. Thanks though.

I've spent the last couple days extracting myself from my last job. Many customers are not happy, and are sending me letters of reccommnendation... I have some great leads in related fields that seem not only very interesting, but financially rewarding...

Agian, though really, thanks. If any of you happen to hear of something particullar, email me @ nds_carnivore@yahoo.com.

( will work for performance parts ) ;)

 

I can understand not wanting to relocate with family close to you, I am also in the process of looking for work too. Good luck and enjoy your winter. j/k

HAHAHA - I meant the PSP you won at the Scion Photo Scavenger Hunt... but yea...

 

Very sorry to hear that man! I will keep an ear out for ya as well. The BU I work for was in need of a couple of people in my group, but they filled them. It is possible that more may be open eventually though.

Go to thier website here: http://www.cargill.com/careers/oppor...ortunities.htm

and see if you find anything. They are the largest privately held corp. in the world, so they have a pretty big work force :D I did a quick search and found 25 openings here in the twin cities for IT alone.. there are lots of other categories as well. Good luck!

 

WOW, this has been such a wild ride.... Still catching up, and here's the good news, I GOT A JOB !!!!
It's with a company called Compellent, visit us @ www.compellent.com

I got the offer last week, and (obviously ) accepted promptly. Compellent is a large storage solution. ( BIG BUNCHES OF DISK DRIVE>>>etc)

It's an entry level position that's a raise from my last job That tells you all just where I was with income.

Thankyou so much to all whom either responded here or contacted me. NETWORKING people deffinatly pays off. I should be more involed in the scene agian soon.......

I hear chassis mods in my future...

 

Not to bust on you, but it sounds like a SAVINGS ACCOUNT should be your next mod. I think the 'chassis mods' can wait a few months...or longer! I know things get rough and this may already be in place, but you never know when it'll happen again! Good luck AND congrats on the new job!

 

Pshhhh. Savings. Don't be silly.

 

Nice find. I hope things go well for you there. It sucks how in todays world a good job can go just like that. My advice is to learn learn learn. The more you know, the easier it is to find a job! And by more I mean diversified... keep as many different skill sets as possible.

 

you need to im me on aim asap, im on all the time and we will talk....could get you somewhere high for a big company ...im me !!!!
njsciontc is my screenname on AIM

would post details here but then no one would leave me alone lol

welp i didnt read the entire post, since i just got up, didnt really care lol

but if you still would be interested, would definately be a secksi salary pay

 

Thnaks to all, agian. x_rayted, I DO have savings....
Last year I built a 50k garage..., Regular house payments..... TWO KIDS who eat, grow need shoes..... GAS...... FOOD....etc,etc.

I would have lasted approx three months without any income. I networked well, and have found a great new start,

The mods will be partiially funded, and done in da garage....

bluenjsciontc, I have no home isp untill dec 8th at a minium, I will contact you after that, just out of curiosity though...

 

I figured, nds...I was kinda joking with my smarta$$ remark...I know how it is to be without a job. And I too get overly anxious to get back to work, no matter how much I have in savings. Please don't take my JOKE as a cheapshot.
Anyway, congrats on the new job!

 

it's all good, great actually!!!

 

Post your resume on monster.com and hopefully you will get a job offer locally. I'm sure you will be offered contractual work since there is a lot of companies looking for that type of offer. Good luck.

 

i get laid off every winter, and io collect unemployment every winter and go back in the spring (its my three month vacation i like that alot gives my sore muscles a chance to heal)

god i love seasonal work
