Whenever I hear about more layoffs in ye olde tech biz, I just roll my eyes. Whatever.

I'm not so coldhearted that I don't empathize with friends and acquaintances who are experiencing it, it's not fun.

But I guess after experiencing three layoffs in a row from .com's a few years ago, I'm jaded. Been there, done that, it's old news.

I was just ahead of my time, I guess.

It's also why I'm pretty jaded about all things workplace.

(I like where I work now, but I still can't shake residual paranoia because of what I've been through).
