   The worst is when HR or someone hires a person to work tech in the company,    
   you do allllllll sorts of training and hand-holding with this new hire... for    
   them to just up and vanish.   
      
   I'm lucky to have certain skillsets, even if a bit niche, and never ever had   
   any problem finding steady work. Been lucky to work both offices and at-home    
   gigs and Covid didn't really seriously affect my career stability.   
      
   I kinda wished I studied Cobol or Fortran or mainframes or anything that the    
   six-foot-tall-300-pound-bearded-wizards are retiring from, where they were    
   paid all kinds of money and where there is apparently a HUGE demand that is   
   not being filled by the millenial crowds.
