На кого больше спрос в BC - на админов или программистов?

[Gaziz]

Переезжаю в Ванкувер из Торонто.

Последние 10 лет плотно занимался администрированием юниксов и
паралельно подхалтуривал программированием.

Хотелось бы узнать мнения насчет того, кому легче сейчас найти работу - хорошему юникс админу и средненькому прграммисту (C, perl, java, php)

Спасибо.

[папа Карло]

лучше работать хорошим админом чем средниньким программером имхо....

[Gaziz]

лучше работать хорошим админом чем средниньким программером имхо....

согласен, но лучче работать средненьким программистом... чем вообще не работать.
