Now that I have completed my research at KAAW, I am looking to supplement my income and get back into the game of programming as I find it much more appealing than building fence or asking you if you want paper or plastic with that.
As most of us know, things have changed since I was active and I need to get up to speed in either the corporate world (.net), or what everybody else seems to be using (php, mysql, python). As for myself, I have no preference in respect to programming languages, although I would prefer that it is something that will not go the way of foxpro, if that is possible. I am not too impressed with what I've seen with elance, odesk, etc. simply because people are bidding $200.00 for a 90 day multi-person team project (seems that way anyway). I learn best by working on projects, so what I'm looking for is small projects that would typically cost a company $200.00 for a half day, or full day's work that do not have a real tight deadline. This way I can charge $100 up front and $100 on delivery, and have 4 or 5 days to teach myself the skills that I need to accomplish it. If it works that way, I can gradually get to a point where I can make $200 per day or $1,000 per week which is my goal. Where should I look for projects like this, or where should I hang my shingle so that it will be seen by those who have need of such a thing? My resume can be found via the following link. http://keepamericaatwork.com/?page_id=214392 Basically I'm looking for a way to supplement my income so that the things I am wanting to do on this page are possible and so that I can pay my bills, and once my skills are back to snuff, get hired by a firm near here, or by somebody that will allow me to work from here. http://keepamericaatwork.com/?cat=62 Thanks, Virgil Bierschwale http://www.KeepAmericaAtWork.com <http://www.keepamericaatwork.com/> Doing our part to Keep America At Work so that we can Keep The World At Work http://www.VirgilBierschwale.com <http://www.virgilbierschwale.com/> If you are having a hard time selling your property in Texas, give me a call. --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html --- _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
