I agree on the nasty situation for newbie engineers. However, I would argue
that
they should pursue a position that will provide them with a wholesome
environment
which will encourage the development of their skills. I've met alot of CF
developers
who have tried to go from 0 (being no basic programming, logic or computer
science) to 120 with no stops in between.
God help the engineer who tries to spec out and build an application via
tele-commute for what could turn out to be no compensation and the risk of
getting discouraged with the whole bit.
Just my opinion though. ;-)
