Was working for a web agency during the dotcom bust, I was one of the few devs not laid off cos I volunteered to work part time (2.5 days a week) so I could spend time on my band. Did that for a year and a half, then freelanced for a couple of years until I got taken on by a client ... and then 2008 hit. Employer laid a couple of people off, paid us late one month, but it wasn't nearly as bad as the dotcom bust and I found other work without any trouble
