Well goons looks like the contracting fiesta that has been my life since I left my job 50 days ago is coming to an end. I received an offer this week from a company that seems fantastic and was able to grok quite a bit of the source in the interview. It's not perfect but it's _much_ better that a lot of the code bases I've seen in my interview flurry of the last few weeks. I asked for a bit more money on top of base because I can't not ask for more money after the initial. Hope I didn't jinx it!

havent heard a peep posted:The year: 2000 in Shelbyville, KY. Gunny Sgt. In ROTC told us that after the semester was out we would all either enlist or work till the grave. He also stated that on average we would all make out to 1 million over our individual life spans. I'm 33 now and my personal drive keeps hitting new levels of peak profitble efficiency albeit I literally starve myself out of spite partly because I have always been scared of big city USA and leaving my parents and Young Buck kid brother behind. I know that I don't belong to anyone and I want to make a buck and buy the family home in Wisconsin to guarantee that my parents don't ever see a retirement home. It's me. I'm the rear end in a top hat that gardens with his mother. source your quotes

RE: Relocation expenses chat. If the company offers to just pay for movers instead of a lump sum: Always take that option. 99% of the time the cost of the movers will come out to more than the lump sum. Unless you are a single person without much stuff.
