in thread Easiest city to find Perl work:

If you meet someone in a bar and they say that they are a software developer and that they "telecommute" it's like a code to say that they don't have a real job and will take whatever web scripting contracts they can get ;)

Thinks: Did I say that out loud? I hope I remembered to post as anonymonk...

    Actually I see a lot of useless criticism in the Monastery about Perl web programming and this is really bad.

    OK, we all know that being seen as a "web programming language" has done a lot of harm to Perl, but ruling out web programming is, IMHO, a very dumb thing.
      FWIW around 70% of what I do is web programming, and I have "telecommuted" at various points in my career ;)
