Employers really know nothing! They are like our political leaders. They have no clue. The mainframe has more logic, less security preaches and far superior tier 1 and 2 support and technicians, documentation as compared to Microsoft could ever hope to have. Have you ever called Microsoft support (good luck)!!! ------Original Message------ From: Elardus Engelbrecht Sender: IBM Mainframe Discussion List To: [email protected] ReplyTo: IBM Mainframe Discussion List Subject: Re: O/T Bad News for out of work Main Frame people Sent: Jul 30, 2011 12:26 PM

True, of course. The unemployed persons need to state *what* did they do during that period. Working as a temp, being enterpreneur, being a student in some course, etc. could be good, but employers may or may not considering these as a plus point... In the mean time these unemployed persons, need to pay bills, look after family, getting money to use for job hunting, etc. Tragic, but this the time we are now living...
