No I'm just stepping away. It's painfully obvious, the Cloudbased companies over selling their shit. and abilities. Are heavy on open source Social network cultures. I dare not call it Development or Developers. They are only keeping people like me around, to help them plug in the missing holes, they are missing. Enterprise development is not the same as Social networks and Framework development. There's no shortcut plugins to get each individual unique companies business in their cash register just right.
In 2002 we were brashly made redundant, and couldn't find work for a whole year. While the Enterprise in America outsourced everything to Indian labor firms.

The platforms are getting dumber and dumber for an even bigger dumbed down end user. The Cloud based CRM, and ERP's are more prevalent than in house Servers with in house scripting and coding for domestic or out of the box solutions.

The non technical floor managers(all young females) are running the conversion and move. They are changing the business model and rules in the process. Still no Data Model. Which is the most elementary, "first thing's first", thing you can do for such a project.
I want to get into Political Analysis and Strategies. How does one get into that, and is it hard to break into?
Anyone think I'll make a great Political Analyst, anyone think I would suck, or if any one has any constructive or critical advice or opinions.
I would like to hear it.
