    It’s true tho. I am getting laid off after about a year, and have been for the past 5 years in development. All big companies. I am a contractor, so they can just end my contract in a blink of an eye and pay me for the work I didn’t create an invoice for yet.

    I’ve always been able to find a new, and better paying job, withing a week.

    An alternative is to work for a contractor company that basically lends you to bigger companies. They usually find you a new job within a day, and let you choose even, because they have a record of what you are capable of.

    IT, at the moment, have the highest chance of not being unemployed.
