    21 Years, 11 Months and 16 days is how long I worked as as a Asian Vehicle Diagnostic Specialist at Identifix.com. Last week I was "Restructured" out of a job/position. So... what are your recommendations for my next adventure? Nothing too wild unless it is a side gig to improve my skills.

    What?! That's terrible. I will have a very different thought process when I see the Identifix brand going forward...

    I'll reach out to a couple people and see if they know of any good gigs open down there.

    Damn... :(

    Everyone is going through this. Even my work place is laying people off.

    Hey Todd, Are you a technician? Pretty much any service department in town could use good techs. If you're interested in working at Minnetonka Subaru feel free to shoot me your resume to [email protected] and I will get it to our shop manager.

    Never heard of Identifix. They seem to have a lot of job openings under the "Careers" tab on their web site.

    Even though we've never met, you have my sympathies. It is a real shot in the gut when it comes out of the blue. I used to work for HealthPartners and even though I retired just a few months before they announced they were closing their pharmacy division, it still came as a shock and kind of a slap in the face when you give a company such a big chunk of your life and it also affected me because there are so many people I know that will lose their jobs come April 1st. I hope you can find something that is a good fit for you.
