I probably would have been, two years ago. Unfortunately, I have been working for the Last 5 years at the same company, thinking I had finally found a place I could stay long term. Now, the Computer section of the want ads in the Arizona Republic from Sunday was a whopping column and a third (mostly not programmers).

With kids in school, I am really hoping I can stay local, but we'll see what happens.

I'm sure things will work out for you, AK. I just hope sooner rather than later....

No, but that situation sure won't help the telecom market loosen up any! I'm not that unhappy to get out of the way of that mess.

Alpha,

I can empathize with your situation. I went through a hellish lay-off Last summer, and my wife (former VP of Communications) is enduring a lay-off from a Telecomm startup called Telegea.

I wish you well, and if I see any inviting job Posts in your area (I am always looking) I will post a link.

I have recruiter contact in the San Diego area, it that is of interest.

Cheers!
Trajan

For those of you in the DC/Metro Area, there's the Washington Post's WashingtonJobs.com.

Good luck! I may be looking in Seattle in a few months myself.

Zen - moving to Seattle, huh? Interesting place; I visited there not too long ago. Very pretty mountains, and the culture was much more comfortable than the DC/NoVA area tends to be. At least more liberal... I saw some shows on the Seattle public access station that wouldn't be allowed on pay-per-view in Virginia.

Something interesting: I believed that fire a guy after their vacations, was only a "third world" vice...
