  • 相约北美 / 移民留学 / 我下岗了。 -sailor(Sailor); 2001-5-30 {346} (#85442@0)
    今天下午被老板叫去谈话，公司现在处境艰难，把1/3的programmer 给 lay off 了，我是其中之一。

    确实，我已经闲了好一阵子了。

    哪位朋友知道有空位的，请帮忙引荐一下，谢谢！我做的是非Microsoft路线的Internet开发，Java, Oracle, Sybase, php之类的, 9 years of programming experience.

    btw, including me, there're only 3 programmers in our company. :-)

      I dare to say, It is not the hardest time, it is the beginning for IT industry's nightmare. There are not much programms left to be coded in the North America. Come to China! We should think in global.... A Canadian Passport is nothing for us we will find early or late , but the experiences in Canada will be a fortune to us. Sometimes we need to learn to give up.But it is easy to say hard to do

      • 不用计数器，那也太业余了，我可以帮你用webtrends全面分析你的站点，出个完整的报告。我认为rolia现在应该能够拉到一些赞助的。 -guest:; 2001-5-30 (#85666@0)
        • Very good professional idea. As a popular website for new immigrant from China. Rolia deserve a full time network administrator. To make it alive U can sell Rolia, be sure for a good price, hehe... -bluespirt(聪聪); 2001-5-31 (#86329@0)
    • 恭喜恭喜! 请看饺子的歪招儿 -dropoutinmiami(东北的饺子); 2001-5-31 {1147} (#86223@0)
      本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛下岗了? 恭喜恭喜!

      这是许多加拿大人求之不得的机会. 可以领EI了.

      1. 如果你经济尚不成问题, 索性就歇上一阵子. 一边领EI, 一边找工作.

      2. 考虑做个CONTRACTOR, 钱多, 税少. 当然要MARKETING自己. 但编程高手, EVALUATION很好做, 是不是行家, 一出手就知道了. 俺知道几个CONTRACTOR的WEBSITE, 你要, 俺找找. 这样的经济形势, 许多公司倒愿意按PROJECT找CONTRACTOR.

      3. I HATE TO COMMERCIALIZE ROLIA. 千万别把ROLIA商业化. 但有几个可能性可以探讨.
      1) 注册ROLIA为NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION, 这样我们可以DONATE,同时也可减税.我第一个DONATE. $100不多, $5不少. 你干脆全职管理ROLIA算了.

      2) 还有个更好的途径. CIC(加拿大移民局)的IMMIGRATION SETTLEMENT SPONSORSHIP PROGRAM, 提供资金给为帮助移民融入社会的ORG. 如温哥华的中侨SUCCESS就是使用的FEDERAL GOVERNMENT的资金. 如果你有意, 我可以RESEARCH一下. 记得每个LANDING的移民的$975的LANDING FEE吗, 就是这个用途, 包括免费的ESL课程.

      3) 我一直酝酿出本书, 你有类似兴趣, 我们可以探讨.

      4) 开个ROLIA饺子店, 哈哈 (其实不是玩笑. 俺在认真地考虑BUSINESS, 受不了加拿大高额税率, 俺不准备做没有多少DEDUCTION的EMPLOYEE, 听起来不少, 拿回家没多少)

      5).......

      放弃了一份工作, 其实却打开了无数的机会. THINK OUT OF BOX!

      饺子是认真的.更多精彩文章及讨论，请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
      • 好招. 我发现越来越喜欢饺子了. u are truly full of talent -guest:农夫; 2001-5-31 (#86236@0)
    • everything will be ok -guest:天马行空; 2001-5-31 (#86224@0)
    • 1. Don't worry to be laid off; 2. Get some EI first to servive; 3. Start your own business -guest:农夫; 2001-5-31 {731} (#86232@0)
      -- thinking about to have a company named as "rolia.com Inc";
      u will be CEO and everything. Mnay volunteers will be willing to join.

      The only problem now for rolia.com is about those topics. Most of them are very good. But don't try to get everything in your pocket. u have to select 3-5 best topics from them. It 'll be more attractive for some companies to advertise here.-- that's the one of income sources;

      After that, try to introduce some good stuff to Rolia.com community, pls refer to Yahoo Shopping. The only thing they do is to get reference fee from vendors. u can do this too.

      ....more and more;

      It's a chance for u to have your own business. It's better and u will never be laid off.

      Good luck.
    • sailor,衷心祝愿你早日再就业！ -guest:sherry; 2001-5-31 (#86243@0)
    • Oh, I am so sorry to hear this. Take a little break, and good luck! -bloor(不算太老); 2001-5-31 (#86248@0)
    • You can find a better job. Believe me! I got a job after 2 weeks I was laid off. -blackswan(uglyduck); 2001-5-31 (#86265@0)
    • Don't be afraid, just believe :) -teddybear(Ted); 2001-5-31 (#86272@0)
    • Sailor, relax for a while. I don't see a problem for you to get another better job. Your work is brilliant. -albxu(Yukon); 2001-5-31 {117} (#86279@0)
      If there is any issue in continuing Rolia's services please let us know. I would like to contribute if it is needed.
    • That's a really bad news. But I guess you have seen the worst, so nothing to fear. We all have to face challenges like that in this dynamic society. Now what you need to do is to calm down and take a couple of days off. -hearts(hearts); 2001-5-31 {1164} (#86285@0)
      本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛Then you'd better file an application for EI, which can provide your a temporary shelter from any potential financial crisis. With this setting down, you can plan your new goal with more comfort. I am not sure whether you are still intereted in being employed as before. Many good advices are already there. My feeling is you better reevaluate yourself and see what kind of person you are and want to be. If you just want to enjoy life like normal people, being employed by a large company will give you much better chance to do so. If you are aiming at making more money than most people or you are looking for other achievements, you need to start your own bussiness right now. From this point, your being laidoff is not so bad.
      Now many people have give your tons of suggestion of how to start your own bussiness. What I am going to say is if you want to enter the job market again, there are still lots of opportunitie there. Believe me, at any time they lack the people who can get the job done and I think it wont take you long to find a good job, if you like.

      Smile to yourself and be confident you can do whatever you want.
      Good luck to you ,Buddy!更多精彩文章及讨论，请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
