RE: recruiting for a good Oracle dba - am I being fair?

The salary looks attractive for Florida but after being born and raised in hot, humid, flat central Florida, I escaped to (literally) greener (because it's wetter) pastures in Seattle. Yes, there is the occasional earthquake and WTO riot, plus a high cost of living and the grey skies, but Seattle is beautiful, green, l-l-liberal, er, I mean progressive, and recovering nicely after the dot-bomb era. Boeing, Amazon, Starbucks, Washington Mutual, Cingular, Microsoft and other sugar-daddies are keeping us information workers in gainful employment.

I have a great position in the low cost of living and really nice city of Tally Florida. I am looking for an experienced Oracle dba. Does anyone have any ideas on the best place to recruit - orasearch, monster.com, dice.com??

It is for a permanent contracted position (ie. All the benefits, time-off of state gov.) with good pay esp. for the area $75-85.

I am thinking that is solid pay for a low-key government dba position. Am I not seeing the reality of the job market?

If anyone has advice on this please let me know.

Thanks,
Paula
