– Hillary MeisterI spent 3 years working contract jobs getting laid off in between and having a very difficult time finding work at a decent pay. I’m a single, professional female in the tech market in her late 40s and have had to deal with gender and age discrimination and other issues. Also, as a cancer survivor I have to have medical insurance and without a permanent job, there’s only COBRA, the biggest ripoff on the face of the planet. My concerns, therefore, are two-fold - job security and availability and affordable health insurance that isn’t tied to the company you work for.
