Simulator of choice?

True, but you won't be bugging 'that' vendor!

Can't really say, just caught in the latest RIF, not retired. Anyone know of a good position where you can telecommute? Not a lot of electronic engineering here in the middle of nowhere... ;-)

Don't know about telecommuting. It seems most want more control than that, but you might get lucky. I posted my resume on Monster last summer and got a job in a matter of days (less than a month between posting the resume and start). I did no active looking, mostly because I wasn't all that interested in working. ;-) The job started out as only a 3-month contract position in another state, but they paid a premium for that, and they're still paying (for another six, anyway). ;-)

I had good luck with Monster, anyway. I got a pile of calls and several phone interviews in the first few weeks. I still get a couple of calls a month but have to tell them I'm spoken for until at least May. ...works for me.

Hmmmm... Might try Monster if my 3-4 other leads don't pan out. I know last time (10 years ago) it didn't help much...

Do. I liked the experience enough that I may stay a contractor. After working for the same company for 30+ years, it's rather nice to just do the engineering and screw the politics. ...though I'm getting sucked into the politics anyway. :-(

Presumably blaming the contractor is even more attractive than blaming fellow employees! :-)

No, actually it's the other way 'round. The contractor found a pile-o-errors in a widget already late for the fab. Fix 'em now or fix 'em later. I don't much care, but later makes me more money. ;-)
