If you pay someone to do nothing, nothing is what they'll do.

I recently posted a $85k+ job here in the DFW area and got exactly 4 responses. Now granted, it is in the IT field, where unemployment is less than 1.4%, but still, we simply don't have qualified candidates in the US for many jobs.

What exactly are you looking for? I might be interested, but I am in my mid 60’s. I am a pretty good programmer :) (C, Java, SQL, etc).

This is why I have put my oldest through College for Computer Science. He landed a job immediately. My 2nd child is in his second year for a double major including computer science.

I however am working at Target for the simple reason that manufacturing in this area will only give you a contract for a limited amount of time. I would rather work then hope for the next job.

Some day I will finish my college. Have 3 kids, so still have a 3rd to go through the system. Fun times!
