Well, after five and half years at my current place of employment, the time has come for me to move on. I officially turned in my two weeks notice on Monday. My last day will be October 31st, 2008. I've been here through good and bad times and it was a good experience overall. I got to meet some really awesome people and have made what I hope will be lifelong friends during this process.
A medium sized network and telecommunications company in Welcome offered me a position last week and it's an opportunity too great to pass up. I'll be learning Linux system administration and Oracle development. Both are highly marketable skills and are more along the lines of where I saw myself at this point in my career. I've super excited they took a chance on a guy like me. I plan on working extremely hard to get up to speed as quickly as possible and become as valuable a member to their team as I feel like I was to my current job.
On a related note, one of my good friends that lost his job in the layoff process here a month and a half ago, will be returning to takeover my duties here. I'm excited that he'll have a job, but I also hope that he continues to look for opportunities to better himself while he's here.
Anyway, it's time to move on to something new, challenging, and exciting. I'll definitely be posting my information about my misadventures here. We'll see how it goes! Wish me luck!
