New Gig?

There's a possibility that I'll be looking for new gig starting in January. If you're looking for some help, let me know.

What does that mean, exactly? A new contract, or a new job?

I truly hope that it is by choice and not by turn of unfortunate events. This time of year is always a danger-zone for job stability.

Adam - a new contract <em>is</em> a new job - right? I prefer contracting for the freedom - and higher pay (of course). Full time work is nice though - my favorite job ever was a full-time gig. But Julie was working then and I didn't have to provide for a whole household.

I'm just putting feelers out there because I know a lot of new projects start at the beginning of the year. I still have plenty of work from existing clients, but one of them is winding down and the project I'm working on will soon be released. I'm guessing there won't be much more for me to do after that, but I'm not positive.

I tend to think that if you make your living as a contractor, then a new contract is the same job, but with a different client. You're still doing basically the same thing, and you're still employed by the same person (yourself). Personally, I'm not hiring (although I'm in the first week of starting a new company to do workflow and process consulting and not anywhere near ready to think about hiring yet), but I will wish good fortune to your hunt.
