Hang on in there.Originally posted by OnceStonedRose View PostThe market must be bad, I don't even get the ridiculous ads posted by agencies for obviously made up gigs so they can get the two references phone calls going.

Really remarkably simple, you have to do contract work to be a contractor, not perm work.Originally posted by seanraaron View PostPlease enlighten me, Mr. Wahlberg.
Being out of contract can be part of the game.
In the good times you build up up the warchest for the lean times.
