Mid life crisis?

You will get through it cap, just want to tell you thank you for everything you do for this website, couldn't ask for better:beerchug:
 
When one door is closed, another door will be opened. Not in our timing, but in God's. That does not mean it will be easy, but God will provide.

I just got the phone call last Friday. "Robert Can you meet me in the Office ?" My heart sank because I knew I was having Issues in my shop. They Reasigned me and cut my pay by 20%. At 40 I am going backwards.................WTF. The guy that replaced me is 1/2 my age................:moon: The M109 is for sale. Not sure what to do about the BUSA and the Buell...................Well. I don't know. On the Flip side this new shop gives me ZERO Stress so I think God has his plans for a reason. Hang in there Doug. At least we have the Org
 
Cap I understand ESPECIALLY in the IT field. They always go for the cheapest labor and the interviewers are rarely (although it seems to be changing some) IT guys themselves and its all about whats on paper. I am currently doing sharepoint development on 2010 and getting paid 50% of what a developer in this area gets. It sucks hardcore but unless I spend rediculous amounts of money for a piece of paper that says im smart, i am stuck working entry level. Another issue I have seen is that they want degree + exp to be at the same level. I am 26 and have 8 years exp in the IT field professionally but for jobs that want 8-10 years exp, they want a masters degree. I am almost done with my BS...anywho, I think im going to try to start my own business...
