Searching for job - page 2

IMHO, the above is the real deal.

Unfortunately, the hype that gets the biggest publicity goes more to the tune of... "earn a much better living," "spend a lot more time with your family," "make $200 per hour," "vacation and cruise at your leisure," etc.

Is it even worth while to try to pursue work in this field? I am all that interested in the "hype" of making $150/hr. I realize that those people are few and far in between.
