find jobs (a typical thread)

does anyone here work?  all pro programmers I know are university professors (real programmers not web dev assholes, but I would do it if it made good money ^_^).
Is there any hope to find work locally?  Specific software that people would hire some no-name asshole like me to do?

Are you telling me that $95K/year plus bonuses is not a comfortable income? Last time I checked, studies have reported that people who make over $75K/year are more content and happier with their lives than those who do not, adjusting for health issues.

Remember, I ultimately do work for the government, and they're always throwing money around.

I hope you enjoy working as a web monkey on php sites making $35K/year.
