    keep hope alive, fellow great laker. i’m sorry to hear it, but i know there’s plenty of opportunities for a good guy like you.

    Very sorry to hear that. I just emailed you, though, and would love to talk to you about a possible job opportunity. Drop me a line.

    You’re too good to be out of work too long. Let me know what you are looking for, and I can see if there’s anything in LA if you want to come down here.

    Or, I’ll ping people in SF.

    Always sad to hear from a fellow SW engineer.

    Good luck with finding a new gig Rober, you have been featured in media and in many blogs so should have plenty of offers coming your way!

    So sorry to hear the news. I don’t have any leads on sw engineering, but Jupitermedia’s looking for a senior editor for Internetnews.com…and always looking for good freelancers…please pass my email along to any of the 120 who fall into the edit category.

    They did you a HUGE FAVOR, that company is tanking with the current management.

    Ouch! That sucks!
    Good luck finding another job man. (and I don’t mean that sarcastically)

    Robert, I believe, that’s just a good sign. With your knowledge, experiences, and as far as I can see, your good reputation and support of your friends, the future is going to be very interesting and challenging for you. Just take enough time, in this frantic every day’s rush, to comprehend the situation of being FREE as a bird. You are soon going to find the greater value of new situation. Carpe diem…
