I found a couple of small projects on upwork, and also got scammed on upwork, so be careful.
I left a job after 12 years, and a couple of years later got re-hired on a part time retainer basis to help fix mistakes that have crept into the product, and to help support current and prospective customers. Nice gig, zero pressure.
I agree with others that networking helps land jobs, especially in the borderless internet era where people from all over the world are competing for work. It’s a race to the bottom.
