There have been times where I'd take any job, and times I was very selective. There are a lot of factors that play into it, like the immediate need to put food on the table. But, either as a contractor or employee, it is most typical that the worse places to work for / with are the ones that have high turnovers. Usually there is more to it than just money, often there is too much BS involved even if the money was higher. And, like raftero sez, you lose some intangibles when you are priced too low... it often scares people, except for the ones that like to exploit you.... or so it seems.
