:: sigh :: Economic woes are leading to drastic changes

Well, looks like the economic downturn has REALLY affected me as of late.

I've been trying to look for good steady work (fulltime or contract, even telecommute), but to no avail.

Looking for CF jobs in the bay area is quite disheartening to say the least. I did a search and found that there are more jobs in the LA area and the northeast.

I'm originally from NYC and the thought of moving back is just killing me. I'm not a fan of the city since I left many moons ago. But, at least I'll have a roof over my head (with family of course) and a chance at a job in the NYC area. I'd rather stick a hot fork in my eye than move back, but it's something I'm seriously considering.

If it comes down to it, at least I can put my stuff in storage out here in San Francisco which will give me the carrot I need to move back. Nah, I don't need a carrot. I love San Francisco and the whole bay area. I just wish there were more CF opportunities out here.

Chris's Gravatar @charlie: thank you for that tip. I've always looked at the cf-jobs board thinking no one responds to those anyway. But, within 30mins of posting I got 2 inquiries :) How do they say it?..oh yeah..."You da man!" hahhah
