I've only had 2 mainframe jobs. The first was from 1983 to 2013 when the company began outsourcing virtually everyone in IT. I got another within a month but for about 2 weeks things were up in the air. During that time I remember driving to the post office and getting stuck behind a lot of traffic and complaining to myself. Then I thought... Hey, why complain? I have nothing else to do anyway. So I'm looking forward to that again.

always end eventually in the client sending you home.)

I don't think I have any records indicating what's the longest I've been 
unemployed.  Nine months, maybe?
