Your friend is living my dream! Living and working in a mobile home! Going to the same place every day is killing me. I would love to be able to travel while working, yet not feel like a tourist.

I think the key to surviving in the engineering services business is to make sure you have value. You have to be something more than another warm body to work on projects. Also, the target customers make a big difference. Although I'll do work for any size customer, it seems that I can provide higher value to smaller customers as they need a higher level of service. It will be interesting to see how this all pans out, but I think there will be plenty of opportunities in the foreseeable future for consultants who keep their skills current, have some high value skills, and offer good customer service.Cliffhttp://bec-systems.com Interesting development.
