Big Changes & Fox Work in SF Bay Area?

[Kurt @ Gmail]

Hey there folks,

Yeah - I've been MIA for a little while now. I struggled to find work in
NYC area - and things just went from Bad to Worse! So - towards the end
of Sept. I made a big life change. Packed up my car - putting most of my
life in Storage - then hit the road and drove West Old Man...

About 8 days later I arrived in San Francisco - where I am now living at
my sister's place. So, I've been looking for work out here. Even applied
to a job at "X" - the special hi-tech lab of Google. They had a job for
a 3D Printing specialist. I would have been Perfect for the job - as I
had everything they wanted. But, maybe they saw me as too old, working
too many years, and probably thought I would need more $$$ than they
wanted to pay for the position - and, as such - I never heard back from
them. I even had not One but TWO Internal referrals - but, alas, that
didn't help...

I'm even looking for possible FoxPro work - which is the main reason I
am making this posting.

Anyone know of any FoxPro work in the Cali area? Preferably in the SF
Bay area. Although, I will consider elsewhere in Cali.

TIA!
-K-

Kurt,

Welcome to CA! Nice to know another VFP/FP guy in the area (there aren't
that many left....) The last time I searched for VFP type jobs, I found a
few scattered over the east coast and a couple down in LA.

Given that I also have grey hair syndrome, I can commiserate with your
struggle. If you want, get in touch and I may be able to give you some
ideas.

The one takeaway I have found is that the top companies (Amazon, Facebook,
etc.) all get a huge hit because everyone wants to work there. But that
makes it easier to focus on the companies that don't generate the same
prestige.

Otherwise, have a very happy Thanksgiving!

Fletcher

Best of luck, Kurt! I recall you were in NYC, and now I see you're in
Cali. Wow...you love the high rent states, eh? lol

Hello there Peter - from the other side of the big pond. AS for Karl -
that will be tough - as he's been dead since 2009. You expect me to die
soon - so that I can give him your greeting??

No, not expecting you to die, just joking :-)
I did grow up watching "The streets of San Francisco" and the Dirty
Harry films, which always come to mind when anyone mentions SF.
