Yes, that is exactly how I feel now. Fortunately i have only been here for 4 years. Freelancing scares me a bit, but maybe being scared is a good thing. Better than feeling like dying!

Around here it seems that contractors are tied to contract houses that give you little flexibility and less than awesome pay. However I should look into it more. Yes, life is definitely brief.

The feelings have been going on for about a year, though they have been getting worse lately. I think you have a valid point. Thanks for the feedback.

It looks like the plan in Detroit may be to bring in a lot of EB-2 visas. I'm not sure how I feel about this. It would be great to bring more people to the area, but also there would be more competition for tech jobs.
