Hey Kurt,

Check this one out.

I applied for it, but haven't got called and it says you can work from

anywhere.

http://zolldata.iapplicants.com/ViewJob-40119.html

Speaking of working from anywhere, I decided last night it was time for me

to open my consulting business back up if I can find some gigs.

Doesn't even have to be development work as I'm quite good at finding the

needle in the haystack if you've been watching my articles on the GDP or

Wages in America and yes, I can still do development work as I have a EDI

type invoicing system that has been running for several years now that

processes invoices, converts them to a text file in the required format and

submits them to Siemens for payment.

More info can be found at the following link and the rates are comparable to

the offshore sweat shops

Thanks,

Virgil

Subject: Looking for VFP Work/NYC Metro Area

Hey folks,

I sure hope this kind of posting isn't against the rules here - as I

have NOT seen anyone YET post a message quite like this (even though I

have been on here for only a little over a year).

I've got over 20 years experience with FoxPro - from the early FoxBase+

to VFP9. And, I have worked on numerous applications - both as a

consultant and an employee.

The truth if - in the NYC Metro area - it seems that VFP type positions

have dwindled greatly over the past 10 years or so. Now to the point

that I almost never see any - although some are in the areas of Conn &

NJ. I live on LI - and I work in Manhattan - although I wouldn't mind

traveling to NJ or CT on a part time basis or as a consultant.

I'm currently looking for fulltime work - but, I am also considering

consulting again. As some of you have seen a couple of my prior posts -

obviously there are major issues at my current position - although I

will tread carefully in my statements (since I receive these ProFox

e-mails at work - although I am now subscribed from my home e-mail, from

whence this message has been initiated!).

So - if anybody knows of anything - I would be really appreciative! And,

if this kind of message is not quite appropriate here - sorry about

that. But, when pickins' are slim - some of us get a little desperate...

Thanks,

Kurt
