Reply to: Will code C# for food

[FSM with Cheddar]

The compiler is not yet intelligent enough to restructure crap architecture however. Some of the garbage I've seen..the developers must have gone to the "writing unintelligible shyte in .NET" lecture.

Yeah, it's nice to know that most developers are tulip. Gives us some hope our skills will be required in the future.

Yeah went to lecture on "Writing tulip code in C#", and he showed that most of the mistakes that could be made in previous versions of .net / vb / C, were all solved by the complier.

Guess things have changed a lot since my borland C compiler days.
Ho hum.

I had similar rates when i was in uni n worked in call centre,Next, WH Smith etc......

However if im on bench and really desperate, i might go for it only if 'work from home' option is available.

FFS no1 in his/ her right mind will ever be interested in that and spending aprox a quid/litre. I never heard of this place(Kidderminster) before, google map suggested its closer to 2 places which iv ever heard of Bham and Worcestor...

Never heard of Kidderminster??
Why it is the foundation of the great carpet industry of Britain.
Wonder if this gig is for a carpet manufacturer? Could they be using dream'weaver' for web design?

Well indeed, and it'll be full speed ahead on the Plan B from next week.

Good! Not all lost for you then: I recommend you start at 8am on Saturday however, not "next week".

That's getting more difficult; as the compiler and JIT optimise a lot of your bad programming without you knowing.

Looking on the bright side, my house is only about 200 yards from the local Job Centre.

I knew someone with a rented flat like that. He thought he had a barging but the place always smelt of stale fags, booze and p... I gather that there were drug dealers, fights, etc going on outside his front door. His landlord was wiser than him and locked him into a minimum six month contract so he couldn’t leave before.

You need to get into the habit of hiding some crafty bugs and performance bottlenecks in your code. Ones than can easily be attributed to .NET just being crap, and can only be resolved by your uber impressive programming and optimisation skills.

So now I have 6 months of C#/.NET behind me (finished contract today), I assume I can now look forward to lots of phone calls from agents with increasingly lucrative offers as they compete for my in demand skills?

Or has the gravy train slowed down a bit?

I have a patio that needs laying.

Atwat needs laying. I think he is offering squirrel food.

One needs to aim to run his own train, even if it's as small as SKA-Net-Express...

Well indeed, and it'll be full speed ahead on the Plan B from next week. The advantage of there being no jobs is that I don't have to worry about whether I'm doing the right thing or not.
