I just got made redundant today. I had this job for over 14 years.
I had to search old USB sticks around the house looking for a copy of my resume as I had no hope of remembering the dates of my other jobs.
Agreed, that sucks dude. Happened to me years back, shortly after we'd purchased our first home. Felt like dirt coming home with that news.
Spent the next 2-3 weeks solid canvassing every day until I finally landed a job. I hope you're not out of work for long. It sounds like you have a lot of experience, should work in your favour. Will keep my fingers crossed for you dude.
