[BC] I'm looking for work....too

[Mike McCarthy]

Actually, Both Kevin and Cowboy are right.  I too had ebb and flows in 
my contracing business. I was VERY fortunate to have very few ebbs and 
many flows overlapping each other.  I alays had a project of some sort 
in motion for 15 years.

Chicago no longer has a full time contractor any more. Everyone has 
side clients. But there is no one around to handle larger projects 
locally.

Granted, Chicago like any other major market requires certain skills 
and such. But for someone with the right skills and equipment 
inventory, a decent living could be made.
