no no...
...philosophical is exactly what I was looking for, thanks!!
It is a relief to hear some of the things you say. You sound like you understand the challenges I face. Feeling "bombarded" is exactly it! I'm making more money now as a web tech doing essentially mindless work (that is getting to me now however) than I did as an experienced teacher with a graduate degree. I had no idea I could make this much. If I can do better as an expert in "something" then I made the right decision. I'm in upstate NY and I see similar demands for .Net although mostly for C# up here. I wonder though...how long can that last? I want to base my decision on a direction that will have some staying power as it were.
Thanks again! Great board here!
