    A shitload of people are being fired from the government, I imagine plenty of them would be worthwhile replacements. It’s just that training takes time. I was working as the employee for a contractor in IT/infrastructure to a global giant up until a month ago.

    My former co-workers talk to me regularly, they are getting screwed without me. Yet the company won’t call me up because pride. They wanted me to come back as an independent contractor at a lower wage. I won’t because pride. It’s fun. I gotta get a job soon though.

    Right now they are paying two people a bit more than half what I was getting and they are fucking shit up because there’s no real training, let alone apprenticeship. Sink or swim.
