Pro jobs. I live in L.A. and I'm pretty sure it's still an Avid town so
are the Avid shops just not hiring or do you really have to know
someone in the industry to catch a break? I'm willing to start at the
bottom even as a logger just as long as I'm working on an Avid. Don't
get me wrong...I like FCP and know it well it's just I prefer working
on Avid as I'm sure most of you do too.

I suggest:

Go where the jobs are, my friend. Since you claim you know FCP pretty
well, don't let your love of Avid stop you from working. GO WHERE THE
JOBS ARE . . . . . (echo, echo, echo, echo . . . . . )
