There is only one start date that I remember, February 14, 1977, when I started employment with NCR E&M-Columbia. What I didn't realize was that I'd meet my future wife at work. I enjoyed my work, and my coworkers. She was laid off in November 1990, and I was laid off in November 1991. My first layoff hit me hard. I did use a bit of "Far Side" comic strip humor. There is a United States of America Code of Conduct for the flag, 4 U.S. Code § 8 - Respect for flag. One section of the code is to never display the flag upside down, except in dire distress, so I turned my nameplate outside my cube upside down. That is a trend that I have done in other layoffs.
Creating a resume from almost 14 years was difficult with the various projects that I worked on.
As a defensive mechanism, after that first layoff, I don't get emotionally attached to my future employers.
After my 1991 layoff, my wife and I practiced "paycheck diversity".
