So what if you are the only person in your location? I live in one state and all of our developers are in another.

Right now I do reporting (sql, vbscript and perl). I want to get in to database administration and C#. I am starting on my own, but there is nobody here to consult with or learn from. Am I lost?

"Really? Because you almost pulled out in front of the guy? Why is he the one apologizing to you, again?"

I don't know about where you live, but here in FL I go very slow when backing out of a parking space because the visibility is bad. If I had a nickle for every time someone flew by in an attempt to be "first" I could quit my job. Would it be that hard to yield to the drive in the blind position and make sure you both go safely on your way? That's what I do and it usually takes only 3 to 5 seconds.

I would advise against so many languages/technologies at once. This was the mistake I made in the beginning and I haven't really recovered. I can dig in to many things and make them work, but I think I would have been better off if I tried to master one or two things.

Find out what your friend is interested in and make your recommendations based on that.
