Humor about contract coding //at 23:43 //by abe

[15:40:40] <StinkfooT> who’s that desperate for $20 coding jobs [15:41:12] <Kaz__> people who do 5-10 a day I guess. [15:41:35] <StinkfooT> you could make more money as a butcher [15:41:39] <StinkfooT> - frank zappa [15:41:49] <bynari-> Yikes, elance.com is BAD [15:41:50] <Kaz__> most coders probably prefer hacking code than flesh. [15:41:55] <metaperl> bynari-: why? [15:41:58] <bynari-> You’ll be working for $10/hour for idiots [15:42:18] <bynari-> You’ll get massive projects that are going for like $2-$5k [15:42:25] <q__> pastebin? [15:42:29] <q__> paste? [15:42:30] <bynari-> Ie 3-4 months work [15:42:34] <bynari-> nopaste? [15:42:38] <bynari-> knowpaced [15:42:39] <+knowpaced> I’m a pastebot! Paste stuff at http://pastebot.nd.edu/perlhelp [15:42:56] <Kaz__> for stuff like that, you want to setup milestones with the client [15:43:16] <Kaz__> like if you agree to $1000 total for a project, have (5) $200 milestones. [15:43:21] <Kaz__> so nobody gets screwed.
