Yeah, I have noticed the same thing. I have been talking a lot to some of my mates who are in archaeology also, and we all agree that people are being put off by the pay and tempory contracts. It is annoying to have gone throuh univeristy, got a degree, got into debt and then spend the rest of your life on barely the minimum wage with sometimes, no possibility of moving up in your career.
I'm not put off by this, archaeoloogy is what I've always wanted to do and getting payed to do something I love is good. And again, the jobs ARE there..you ust have to look for them. You have to show people that you are capable of doing the higher payed jobs..otherwise you'll get no where.
