I'm going to have a good go at looking for a contract when I'm back from holiday and now that Labour are gone. Hmm, what areas should I "enhance" my CV? I think every place I've contracted is bobified now.

Implied by posting SAS job results.Originally posted by gingerjedi View PostIs this thread about lower IT salaries in general or specific niche skills?
Someone seems to think it's the later but I don't see where the OP made that distinction?

unfair
Apart from that, that more or less sums up the Labour years for me.Comment

Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave JohnsonComment

Sorry if that was not clear. My point was that even jobs with niche skills which used to command a very high salary are now just in the range of an average engineering job, meaning that the golden age for IT has definitely come to an end. Of course, if you are not even specialised and have just very generic IT skills then you are paid as much as an admin job nowadays.Originally posted by gingerjedi View PostIs this thread about lower IT salaries in general or specific niche skills?

If you think you can make a long-term profitable living with average code monkey skills, yes, I'd say you're thick.Originally posted by gingerjedi View Post...on page 3 after the OP was called 'thick'.
Thick because you're ignoring globalisation, the government's policy of allowing cheap labour through ICT, the fact that any job that requires you sitting at a desk and not interacting with live people can be done by a cleverer person on the other side of the world and the fact that major corps don't see IT development as a strategic policy, rightly or wrongly.
If given the above you don't adapt and moan about falling rates and disappearance of jobs you are by definition, thick, and hence deserve your fate.
HTH, but IDI.Hard Brexit now!
