All the work I am doing is for either people I've worked for before, or friends of those people.

I've looked at a few of the gig sites, but I am not prepared to take on tiny 1day work at $30/hour, and that is unfortunately the majority of the things I saw on those sites.

The best work to get is from non-tech companies; tech companies want lines of code delivered, non-tech companies want business value delivered. Guess which one is prepared to pay more for the same number of lines of code ...
