Dear Conspiracy Wingnuts: I Got a Full Time Job Today. So Did Lots of Other People.

[HillWilliam]

5. Six months ago I got a job after spending a year on unemployment

The job paid $10/year more than the one I had lost before that. It wasn't the best fit, so I kept my options open. (It's a 63-mile each way drive.)

A week from Monday I'll be starting a new job that will pay 10G/year more than this one WITH fully-paid health benefits AND three weeks vacay/year. I'm leaving my current job on the best of terms, and hey, they're screaming here for MUMPS programmers. (If you happen to be one and you need a good-paying gig, PM me!!)

I'm lucky that I have a wide skill set and test out well under any of it.

I'm headed back to the world of web-programming. The market is screaming for PHP programmers. My phone hasn't stopped ringing for several months. It's been nice to pick-and-choose to get something that fits.

The job market sucks? Not for IT in central NC it doesn't.
