Thanks for the good wishes. I was out of a regular job from August
2006 to May 2007. The market for my area is very competitive with a
lot of the work being sent offshore. Plus, with the economy the way it
is, those firms who still are doing implementations are not willing to
pay travel expenses. And there aren't many Oracle shops in Western
Washington - it tends to be Microsoft country - not biting the hand
that feeds...

What type of work did you do?

Christine
