well, at least at my shop the pay isnt bad, but if you go there and they realize you know somewhat what your talking about, you suddenely become valuable, and you start doing things that will make you even more valuable, its a beautiful circle, :D

Sounds like quite an interesting plan, 'specially if we went international! :)
Don't give up.

Not now, not soon, not after being continually knocked down.

If you never give up, you can never truly fail.
