    I'm so sick of coding for hire. I'm just fed up with it. I have some ideas and I'm ready to write my own systems and sell them instead of writing other peoples. I'm not seeking someone for work right now. Instead I'm seeking a pool of people who would be willing to give me there personal email addresses so that I can tap them as resources later. Having said that I need someone who: 1. Has an internet connection, email and a desire to work on extra projects.  2. Very good in Asp .Net 1.x and 2.x. 3. Very good with SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server 2005. 4. Has been doing ASP work for hire for at least 2 years and is self-employed doing it for hire. 5. Wants to do contract work in ASP .Net. :-D I have ties to a lot of companies wanting a lot of work at times. There will be years (like this one) where I might keep you pretty busy. There might also be some dry spells so please don't expect me to be your gravy train. Having said all of that if you are interested contact me. Using the email link down by the reply link. I do have a spam filter that is evil. I collect blocked messages every few days or so. You may not get a reply from me right away. If you get no reply at all please post here and let me know. - Rex

A negro (American born and bred) from downsouth Starkville,MS wants to work with you OR heck 2. Some "White Trash" from Arkansas/Louisiana etc. (your typical American thorough bred again) wants to work for you ... would you still consider these candidates?... I wonder! If you do then you are a sucker for local labor and hate offshoring ... if you don't you are either a racist bastard or just plain nutjob with no "life":cool: Timing is Everything

      My current clients and other developers call me quite a bit. The last project I just finished had about 500 hours in phone calls to other developers.

      Look I appreciate your comments but please don't waste my time. I'm an adult running a *very* succesful business with depth in several technologies. Cut the nonsense.

      You should read the conversation Nishant Sivakumar and I were having. Might help you to see where I was coming from.

      If I never spoke with them I wouldn't no differently. I'd expect resumes and examples of a proven track record in development. Aside from that keep wondering.

      I will always pick local labor first and no that does not make me a sucker. You're close minded to think so. I buy groceries from local grocers, gas from local gas stations, computers from local vendors, etc... It's called supporting your local economy. Your second comment hints at your own short-comings. Please refrain from these comments in the future if you expect any replies from me. Have a good day. - Rex

        Now I don't know the size of your project nor do I know the total time spent on it but based on an average project timeline I would say 500 hours is way too much ... were you "let go" from the company for being this nit-picky?

            I was very tired and exhausted when I made my original post. I had just finished about 6 months of working 100 hour work weeks on a project spanning almost a year that really kicked up in the end. I left my first post in tact because so many people had read it. I'm going to go remove the stuff about Indian contractors because it's really not applicable. My previous on-site job where the communication was face-to-face is what I was thinking and that simply won't be the case with this. You seem to have formed several opinions about me all of them wrong and that's fine. I cannot change the way you think. Unfortunately you are on a bender for me and I'm not interested in playing dodge-ball with you. Like you pointed out I do have work to do. I am not anti-Indian, anti-redneck, anti-anything. I'm very tired, I have to much work and I want to displace it off on people I can trust. If you are at all interested in that feel free to let me know. I'm quite happy to move right past where things are and directly into where things could be. I'm getting ready to launch an advertisement in a local business publication that will likely net a lot more work for me. Of that work I'd like to marshall almost all of it here to the CP consortium that gets formed. I'm hoping that in time other developers/freelancers/consultants will also start to advertise and attract work and we all can stay very happy, very busy and not have to have employees. I and others have there own web servers and if not on mine then on someone's I'd like to setup version control, multi-project issue-feature management (Developer-side and user-side.) I'd like to have an environment where new people interested in joining can post resume type data, links to their work, etc.. as well as sections where individual projects are scoped out, delegated, delivered, deployed and supported. Someday adapting VS TEAM SYSTEM might also be kind of fun. The sky is the limit on this and I want to see where it all goes. I'm going to guess you have the tallent/skills/abilities to be part of it and if you are interested just let me know. I deserve (in some ways) the harassment you have provided so far and that harassment has caused me to change my post as I have zero wish to exclude anyone based upon race, religion or gender nor the ability to speak audibly. What if a def individual wanted work? How would I manage that? I couldn't. So anyway. There's my vision that is growing and changing by the moment. P.S. - The project was enormous the 500 hours in phone calls were virtua

                  Hey Rex, I posted that before I read your other posts about Wipro. If you look at the time-stamps, it was my first post in this thread. I now understand what you were trying to say, but when I made this specific post, I did feel a little taken aback. It's all okay now though :rose: Regards, Nish

                    Hi Rex, I'm currently in a similar position as you are, with an awful lot of contract work. However, part of my vision as a company is to get some work in the US, mainly so that my future customers can benefit from the folowing advantages: 1. Lower costs. Definitely, software development in Mexico is much cheaper than in the United States. 2. Culture, geographic location and timezone. As you mention, there are very few cultural differences between the US and Mexico, and we are close enough to make travelling practical. I'm not American, but I don't think my English is that bad, and I comply with the other four points, so I guess I qualify for your interest. :) We currently have a lot of work (we are fully booked for the next two or three months), but anyway I'm very interested in making this alliance that could benefit us both (and anyone else who wants to join). You'll get my email address on the notification message you receive from this post. I will be out of town for the weekend, starting tomorrow, so I might not reply immediately. I look forward to hearing from you soon, and I hope we can work something out together! :)

                    Lower than here in Indonesia. How much per hour does the rate in US dollars? I think people around here will gladly take $2/hour work.

                      Lower than here in Indonesia. How much per hour does the rate in US dollars? I think people around here will gladly take $2/hour work.

                      No, I don't think the rate here is lower than in Indonesia. Here in Mexico it probably costs $25-35 (US dollars) per hour of work. However, our main advantage with US customers over India/Indonesia/anything-around-you is that our culture is very similar, the time zone is the same (I'm in Mountain time), and that traveling is actually practical, since a 1:30 hr flight will put me in Houston/Dallas and from there I can fly to anywhere in the US.
