I am a programmer with over 20 years experience, including ten with Visual
Basic. I have worked for some major clients, and have often been brought
back for additional projects.
I have been out of work for over a year because of the amount of work in
this area that has been farmed out to India and Pakistan. My current asking
rate is only 40% of what I was getting two years ago. Even so, I'm not
working.
Stay in India. That's where all the good programming jobs are now.
