I've been a consultant for over three years now, so technically it's one job, but I've been out on 5 contracts since I started. It has it's advantages and disadvantages. I've moved around enough to see benefits on both sides of the fence. It's nice to be able to move on to something else at the end of your contract, typically about the same time I get bored/fed up with the company. At the same time it can be really hard making friends (or avoiding them) while integrating into different corporate cultures.
My next step after this will be independant, unless there is some incredible offer at a job I actually enjoy. Some days I grow tired of carrying the weight of others...

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
