Ask HN: Will you help a junior developer in need of short-term employment?

My name is James and I'm a student at App Academy in San Francisco. We spend a lot of time working on projects in Ruby, Rails, JavaScript, and Backbone. In less than a month I gained enough skill to build a lite version of Rails' ActiveRecord in a day. We will be finishing up around the middle of next month and then I will be searching for a job as a junior engineer (not that I haven't already started looking).

Here is my problem: I want to stay in San Francisco while I look for a job, but the money is running dry very quickly. Things are more expensive here than I anticipated. If I don't find a way to get some money after I finish my stint at App Academy, I will have to move back to Florida and stay with my mom while I look.

Will you let me work with you for a month or two? Not only will this allow me to stay in the area while I look for work, but I will gain experience and you will get some cheap labor. If you are interested then I invite you to check out my GitHub and StackOverflow accounts or shoot me an email, all of which can be found in my profile. Payment is negotiable. I really just want enough to pay my bills until I search for the right job.

Hope I hear some good news soon!

James
