Don't let that deter you. There is usually more demand than supply and in the microcontroller market I think that will go on for quite a while, because uCs are so cheap that every manufacturer wants to put one in a consumer device. If you keep having fun and make cool little projects you can carry in your pocket and show to people, sooner or later someone will ask you to do it in exchange for money. It's one of the nice things about the technology industry.
