Hope this is not too off topic for you guys but...
I'm looking for work. :az:
So I’m just seeing if anyone here can :help. Anyway I am willing to do all sorts of stuff.
I have exp and can do physical labor like warehouse jobs, residential construction, network administration, phone support and software development. I am currently rebuilding the engine in my truck and I also do all of the work on the Bimmer myself so I would love do something in automotive.
I currently do custom software through a small company in Denver. I have the most exp with a programming language called Eiffel but some of my projects are in VB or FoxPro. I know and can develop C++ and Java although I don't have tons exp with Java. I do have loads of Database design and object oriented design experience.
At my current job I only get paid for work that I bill. Lately that has been pretty minimal. Not even enough to pay my rent. Also my wife is about a day away from having our baby. I worked at HP for 8 years and got laid off in '98 and have been looking for a stable job ever since.
So far sending out the resume has seemed useless, as software jobs are somewhat scarce.
I'm flexible on pay, I just need more than what I’ve been getting the last several weeks, which probably averaging about $100/week!!:(
Or if anyone has leads on a business that wants to hire my company to write a business app for them then there are at least a half dozen other programmers twiddling thumbs at my office. The software industry just sucks!!
Any help is appreciated and if someone helps me get a job I’ll owe you big time. Like Dinner at the Brown Palace or track time at Second Creek Raceway or something.
Thanks,
Eric
