While doing some research for work today, I came upon a job board I had 
completely forgot about, which has some interesting positions on it. There 
are federal jobs, as well as federal contractor positions.  The site is 
www.usajobs.opm.gov

Hope it helps :)

>Hi everyone,
>
>Thought I'd give another update on my employment situation. I spent a
>significant amount of time working on a business plan after meeting
>with a SCORE counselor in the hopes of finding an investor. The more I
>heard about investors (including a quote from a friend who is a
>financial planner, "They'll own you."), the less I wanted to go that
>route. I've made a decision to only do what I can on a small basis,
>contacting companies one at a time.
>
>A woman from church called to ask me a computer question, and after
>I'd helped her, she insisted on paying me. So, I thought that might be
>a good way to make money, and put an ad in the paper for low-cost
>computer help--got nothing until last Saturday (a few weeks after the
>ad ran), then helped a woman who says she'll be calling back again.
>But it's probably not going to be enough, soon enough. My severance
>was good, but a lot of it went to taxes.
>
>So, I'm looking for a job. I had an interview with a recruiter last
>week, and have put my resume on Monster.com. I've applied for several
>jobs on the local job board. I've written to several translation
>companies, trying to get pre-press formatting work. I've even bid on
>some work on guru.com, but so far... nothing.
>
>I'm open for contracting if anyone knows of anything, and own Word and
>FrameMaker. Something will come up, I know. It's just a matter of
>time.
>
>Hope you're all doing well. Have a great week!
>
>Warm regards,
>Lisa G.
