No worries, @krnel. We all have to do what we have to do, so I hope the job search pays off soon, one way or another. You probably know this, but there's plenty of us here who are in similar situations to some degree or another. Those who aren't are already working and so can't dedicate as much as they would like to building the community, increasing their stake, mingling, etc. It's basically how it goes, regardless of how much it would be nice it were otherwise.

So, hopefully, you'll get what you need out of the work you get, and still be able to do some coding/posting/etc. I wish you well however it ends up shaking out. :)
