Why is it so hard to land a job these days? Worked 10yrs with a company, got terminated and here i am. Even harder to find something at the payrate was getting before. What gives?

A work friend of mine who left my company last year because he saw an impending lay off, and had warned me and asked me to start applying elsewhere. I didn't listen to him, which sort of left our frie...
