I doubt you have been watching too much CNN, because they are reporting just the opposite of what you said. There is a list (see link) at cnn.com of the top 10 jobs in America. What's #1? Software Engineer! Not only is the average salery over 80k, the projected 10 year growth is 46%! It is also listed as relatively low stress and flexible. Who could ask for anything more?
