Default New Job!

Finally! 9 months after being laid off in Ohio, and 6 months after moving to NC for "greener pastures", those pastures finally grew grass!

I received and accepted an offer today with the same company that laid me off in Ohio, working as a contractor for the EPA in Research Triangle Park, NC, which is home to most of that agency's computing power. The folks in the group that I have met so far seem to be really great, and it will be soooo nice to have a paycheck again! Seems like all that Cisco schooling I have been doing paid off, my offer was for a substantial increase over what I was making in Ohio.

I start next Tuesday.

Dave

That's great news Dave. The only downside is that it takes away from your fun time in the S.

Congrats.

Actually, it means I can afford more gas for the S And get that stupid key mark fixed! I think I'll be able to drive it just about as much, since it is my DD.

Jonas, it's really great that all our folks who want jobs or new ones are finding them, even if it does take awhile!

Thanks for the good words, all!

Dave
