Asher, and other techwhirlers,
I live in West Springfield and work in Ludlow. At various times when I've
been disgruntled with my job, I've looked in the Springfield Sunday

doesn't mean they're not out here, but perhaps they don't use the newspaper
to fill job positions.
Some resources I can think of off the top of my head:
If you have any other questions, feel free to send me email.

Subject: TW job market in western Massachusetts?

Barrington area) sometime within the next year or two. What's the TW
