Market definitely seems like it's picking up now.

Good news. Still waiting for the phone to start ringing though

Ka-Boomed!!!!

Finally got an offer after 4 months on the bench. Most local gig I've ever had (30min commute) and second best rate. Initially for 3 months with the usual expectations of extensions.

Okay, the paperwork is still awaiting signoff, but at least I won't have that buzzing in my right earhole during the day.
