Heres a suggestion

Post #24,254 by boxley 1/14/02 9:18:03 AM Reply	Heres a suggestion Have you thought about dressing up like you were going to work, heading downtown to where the mass transit picks up all the workers and hold up a big posterboard with WILL CODE VB FOR CASH along with a list of the languages you know. It would take a lot of intestinal fortitude, but you have that. It also garners attention, you need that to stand out from the fellow out of work IT folks. Do it for a couple of days, take some business cards with you to hand out(print them on your printer) and good luck. In West Palm the business district isnt concentrated like St Louis or I would try it here. thanx, bill My Dreams aren't as empty as my conscience seems to be

Much better than "Will wrestle you for food" that I saw someone else hold up once. "Will code Visual BASIC for cash." - Norman King

I might do a better job if I made a web site about it and submitted it to many different search engines? Then I could work at home as a Freelancer. "Will code Visual BASIC for cash."

The average hunter gatherer works 20 hours a week. The average farmer works 40 hours a week. The average programmer works 60 hours a week. What the hell are we thinking?

In the panicky days following the selling off of the Microsloth Campus, to pay lawsuit creditors: Will design crappy software, for junky food (Hell, honesty gets donations - it's so rare) Guy or gal could become the first Junk Millionaire.. OK maybe the 1001st.
