Wow, I'm really sorry to hear that. You're not a contractor, you're a second-class employee. Best of luck on getting out. What a shit economy to attempt that in right now. :/
I was young when the dot-com bubble popped. I weathered that by going back to school and working part time. From there I developed some in-demand skills that make my work rewarding. My student loans are nearly paid off and my horizon looks alright for a couple of years. We'll see how this recession goes; I'm always on the lookout for a viable exit strategy and that's gotten quite dim lately.
