programming.

I enjoy programming. I actually want to make a career out of it. I'm 25 years old and out of college[cs degree], I have had a couple of temp projects and done some websites / etc - but didn't have a steady job in programming. Now I'm a purchasing a purchasing agent and I feel like my lifelong love of computers is slipping away from me. I go home everyday and I'm drained of energy dealing with stupid bullshit from my suppliers who usually lie/lose my faxes etc (frustrating). Anyways, where I'm going with this is, are there any entry level jobs out there these days. Or even free and interesting work (ie projects - telecommuting) I can do for charities. Thanks in advance for your advice.

i dislike c++, its crap. i began learning it a while back and stopped and decided to continue my focus on just plain C (which can do OO)
