How many ppl posting here are on the bench?

[FiveTimes]

Once again, not me I'm here until end of March. Then I might take a week off, but then again I might sign for another 6 months
Make hay while the sun shines.

I'm busy till next summer (i think) and even then I'm working on another direct client who will probably have some work kicking off soon after that.

Agencies seem to be pretty busy though, getting plenty of calls which end as soon as i tell them I'm busy - i.e. no fishing for details!

I thought the market was dying a painful death-defying deadly death?

[wendigo100]

I don't think it is. I've had agents commit hari kari when I've said I'm not available.

[chef]

nope, by the vibration i get in my pocket I've either picked up the g'friend's "toy" or my phone is constantly calling.. market is BOOMing at the moment..

Yes .NET, boom boom toot toot boom boom toot toot !

I saw an ad for .Net the other day, senior developers at an IB paying £500-600.

The thing is, if you're all .NETters sooner or later there's going to be oversupply... just like in Java land.

Don't know about .NET but market for Oracle DBA seems to be dead at the moment. On the bench for one month and counting.
