Hi Andrew, There's plenty of work out there, it's simply a matter of finding it.
Of course, where you are based is a factor - not all companies are progressive/flexible enough to permit off-site work. I recommend that you give Steve Gilles a shout. He'd be quite happy to give you some free advice to help you get your foot in the door. He's a recruiter but he's one of the good guys, he's technical (a regular rails camp attendee) and understands the Ruby community. He's @stevelikesyou on Twitter. I think he's overseas at the moment though, so he might not get back to you immediately. Best Regards, James.
