Take it easy Sonhouse - time for the family to help you out.
Wish you well.
Wife and I also play folk music, may look into playing (Gag🙂 religious music in old folks homes, they pay pretty good for folk music and there are a LOT of old folks homes!
Thanks for the kind words.

I've been there and I know it feels awful at first. But the best thing that ever happened to me careerwise was that the company I worked for went belly up, which forced me to go freelance. Cleared up my gastritis right away. I now work 12 weeks a year instead of 48 weeks, make the same money, and my self-esteem improved 100%. You may have to weather a rough year or two until you find the right gig. It gets better, you just have to have faith in your own abilities.
Originally posted by @moonbusSounds like you made out ok. What was your field? My thing is semiconductor tools, ion implanters, sputtering machines, RF etch, vacuum troubleshooting and the like.

Originally posted by @sonhouseMy field was and still is configuring Cisco routers and switches. Maybe not quite as specialized as yours. Don't give up. Somebody out there needs your kind of expertise, education, and experience. Whatever you did before, the company you worked for surely did not manufacture everything from raw ore; they must have purchased either components or information services from someone else. Think about consulting in one of those related sectors, since you know exactly where those components will end up which you used to work on. For example.
