Well life throws ringers like this, and the only thing you got to do is roll with it. No reason to get upset.

I just cracked open a Natrual ICE 6 pack for $3 something. But it has %6 alc vol. ;)

Anybody in KPDX area want to stop and buy me a beer let me know! LOL
 
:(

Sorry to hear it, man. Welcome to the IT wasteland!

I consider myself lucky to be working under a 50% paycut since Oct. 1st 2001, since I PERSONALLY know more than 20 IT folks who are working at Home Depot or Walmart while North Carolina's IT jobs are being outsourced to firms in India, Phillipines, and Taiwan. My friends were 'too expensive', as well.

Now I'm being sued by everyone from hospitals to FBOs because I can't find a full-time job and I refuse to sell crack to pay 'em.

Good friend of mine is in Hillsboro, just sold his plane. IT sucks this time of year.
He does website for 337skymaster.org
 
Styles,

Well depending on your location, check out jetBlue.com.

We can't hire enough IT guys. Our growth and heavy dependence upon computers puts you in our market for sure.

We have on location needs as well, so again it depends on where you live.

Happy landings,
