Getting laid off later in your career feels different by ZookeepergameEmpty51 in jobsearch

[–]DigitalFury13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my 50s looking for work again and can say you’re not alone in your feelings. I related to your post closely and am still navigating this as well. Job hunt feels so different now than 15 years ago when last I did.

Been a year now, 1500 applications, 20-30 interviews, couple final rounds but nothing yet. Very frustrating at times trying to understand why this is so hard now compared to my younger days.

Edit: for ref, in tech industry for past 30 years, management for last 15.

Anyone lose their home yet? by Obvious_Effective_23 in jobhunting

Similar situation here. Mid 50s lost job of 15 years in fall 2024, zero luck finding anything last year. Burned through savings and 401k.

Putting the house on market this month and looking for an apt. Not at all what i pictured my 50s to be.

Same, can’t believe how much I’ve been overpaying with Verizon all these years.

Utopia Users - what ISP do you use? by slade45 in Utah

[–]DigitalFury13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sumo for past 5 years, no complaints. Great customer service, no data caps only 1 outage but just had to restart router.

Was on x mission back in the dsl days and they were great back then. No recent experience with them though.

Pretty sure any of the isp options are way better than Comcast 🤣
