Doug,
Two Points

- User groups are excellent places to network and make contacts
- Asterisk skills will translate into other telecom or non telecom related fields.  I work for a fortune 500 company and I'm responsible for a bunch of Avaya systems.  None of the people on my team had Avaya experience before they joined, but they were skilled in other telecom areas.  I'm sure Seattle can support one more good telecom engineer, even if it's a short term gig while you look for your dream * job.  If I hear of anything, I'll post it here.

Good luck.

It can't be that bad there in Anchorage. I'm in Billings, MT, which is about half the size of Anchorage, and sometimes (no, wait... most times) it seems like I'm 500 miles from civilsation. Wait, I AM 500 miles from civilisation!

        I work for a medium size business in Anchorage, AK running two
        installations with about 30 handsets a piece.  They've both been in
        service for a couple of years.

        I'm in Seattle fairly frequently, being it's the metropolis closest to
        Anchorage.  I'd be jazzed if there was a user group there and would be
        willing to help in it's formation.

        All,

        Anyone know of any companies (small, large) that are using,
        experimenting with, deploying, and so on, Asterisk in Washington state,
        most likely in and around Seattle? I'm curious from an employment
        perspective. :)

        Doug.
