I hear you. I just got laid off and find myself afraid to go through all of the work to find another job just to be laid off again. At the end of the day it's out of my control, but then again it was always like that.

I'm sorry this sounds tough. Times are so uncertain for everyone these days. I hope you get something long term soon

I'm so sorry you've experienced this twice. Hope you find something soon. Keep your head up.

I am seeking new employment, I was recently laid off due to lack of work. I would very much appreciate any leads. I have a Bs in Construction Management and over 15 years experience with Revit and AutoCAD and 7 years of plumbing design. I have solid references and impeccable work ethic. I truly enjoy what I do. Working remotely the last three years has become a way of my life and supports our current situation well, therefore I am seeking a similar role but will consider other opportunities.
