OT C++ contract programming - how to find?

[BCC]

Hi,

Sorry for the off topic post... but where does one find a local contract
programmer? I may be looking for someone in the san diego area to help with
some work I am doing.

Does anyone have any suggestions on where to look to find local (preferrably
freelance) programmers?

Thanks,
Bryan

If you know something is off topic, then DON'T post it. Twit.

A post about programmers is off topic in a C++ newsgroup? (Johnny Carson
voice) "I did not know that."

Well, not to encourage such a horrible event, but the OP could try posting
his job on Dice.com or Craigslist.com.

Thanks much, I will check out those sites. Just as a note, it just kills
me how some people feel it their duty to flame every post that is not
related to actual c++ syntax. For that, clc++ is almost (but not quite) as
bad as comp.lang.perl.misc. Lots of newsgroup police there who feel it
their duty to scold every post they deem slightly off topic.

Even if it might help someone out there find some work.

Just as another note, it just kills me how some people cannot use
a search engine to find the FAQ or Welcome text for a newsgroup,
read it and absorb the knowledge. For that is the main reason that
moderated groups were created.

One could find many web sites for announcing jobs or contractors
by using a good search engine. Chew on these:

http://www.monster.com

Job recruiting is not slightly off topic. It is completely off topic. If you
can't tell the difference between, say, discussions over template syntax and
discussions of, say, location and salary, then you have big problems.

If "just kills me" how people are too lazy and too selfish to take the
trouble to place their posts in an appropriate forum. The only reason forums
like this are not an unuseable farce of irrelevant content is because,
fortunately, people like you are comparatively rare.
