What does he do? I have definitely not found this to be an issue for me at all. I'm willing to move, which helps, but I've lived in Phoenix, Denver, Chicago, Salt Lake City, and I'm back in Idaho Falls. I have always been able to get an IT (SQL Server DBA) job within a month anywhere.
Heck, my company right now has IT positions we can't find anyone to fill. And at least in Idaho Falls, we have a BMW dealer!
However, the on-call still exists here. It's just not as bad as some places I've been.
