[Sigia-l] is it just me, or is it really hard to find IAs right now?

hi hiring manager,

i respect your point of view and really wish i didn't have to 
freelance. however, i can't tell you how many times i've been misled 
or lied to about the positions i've accepted, both full time and 
contract to hire. and i refuse to stay with a company under such 
conditions.

that could be one reason for the turnover.

i would also suggest that you're hiring the wrong freelancers. i make 
a herculean effort to document all of my work, write specs, save 
files in an organized fashion and share my project knowledge with all 
the team members so that they can continue to work on the project 
after i'm gone or hire someone to pick up where i left off.
