Via T-diddy.

Ladies and gentleman, I’ve done this before, but I need to again. I am getting a considerable amount of contract offers that I cannot fulfill because I have too much other work going on.

If you do contract work, (design, programming, etc.), please email me your contact information, and skillset.

If I already have your information, please do so again.

The jobs in question deal with primarily Flash design, illustration, and programming, although I had one surprising .NET web service coding potential contract. I cannot answer any inquiries about jobs, I’m merely adding to my contact list, and if a job comes up, I’ll let you know then.

Mediasparkles reported on a USA Today article about the death of the American Programmer. I’d rather not exclude this to America, though, as I’ve heard other countries being affected in various ways. For the purpose of this blog post, the question I pose applies to everyone, regardless of your country.

Her blog entry is neat because she asks the question of what your alternative career might be. Fun exercise!

I’m all over the map (paramilitary performing clandestine/covert operations, US Senator, Art Director at a design studio (i own) in India, etc).

If you couldn’t use a computer as your primary career choice, what would be your 2nd?

Example: DJ instead of a ColdFusion programmer (not ColdFusion programmer instead of Flash programmer… that still uses computers, see?), or Social Psychologist instead of Information Architect.
