Re: Midrange Jobs National Discussion

Not everyone can or wants to relocate.  As a divorced mom, I have a moral 
obligation to keep my sons close to their father.  I also have promised my sons 
that they can finish HS where they started it if at all possible.  I'm here for 
at least 3 1/2 more years since my youngest son is a freshman.  

I'm not expecting the iSeries to stay around forever.  I honestly think the 
fact that I've worked since 1980 as an RPG and now RPGLE programmer is pretty 
good.  What I do find hard to believe is that companies would prefer to 
out-source and use contract programmers rather than hire full-time programmers 
and keep the knowledge in-house.  Last time I checked, there was ONE company 
hiring contract programmers in the SF and East Bay area.  Makes it tough to 
find a job....

   To those of you who complain about not being able to find opportunities,   
   open your eyes.  I have been searching for a systems admin job for a       
   couple of weeks now.  Sure, you may not have a lot of opportunities near   
   where you live now, but they are out there.  Searching the popular job     
   sites, I have found iSeries programming jobs quite abundant.  Seek and ye  
   shall find.
