I am apprehensive about playing right now due to the fact that I am looking for a new job. And let's face it, 90% of poker (past the amateur levels) is concentration and deep thought. In the face of such uncertainty, I think it would be severely -EV to sit down and try to concentrate. I can just picture the recent chain of events (all out of my control) leaking into the silence and mood-tilting me.
I have been in IT and technology a long time. I got so good at it, that my last 3 companies were all purchased! I made considerable contributions to the bottom line and in customer satisfaction ratings, so I am in some ways a victim of my own success.
I am hoping that all that success translates to opportunity, but its a tough market. I would also like to say a public thanks for the people that have taken some time to refer me to others in their network. I am amazed at the generosity and kindness that can come from people you only get to see occasionally.
more to come...

Good luck out there. Hopefully you got a decent compensation package.
Something good will come your way.
Really sorry to hear about the job situation. Best of luck in your hunt.
Yep, I can relate, having been in the exact same situation the last 2 months. Just got my 1st job offer today, so hopefully you're next!
If you would move the the DC area, your IT skills would land you a VERY lucritive job.
GL!
You can certainly link to me on linkedin to see if anyone in my network can help. Most of my network is California or Maryland. Only people I used to know in Detroit were at WebbCo but have lost track of them
