Yeah, I basically have another offer in hand. Heading down to DCM area soon (next 3 weeks) to take another position within the company. Just working on different things.

Nah, not NYC. I'm in upstate NY now. It'll be nice to get the fuck out of here...

4/29/2010 10:05:31 PM

nice! glad you have the back up, good luck!

4/29/2010 10:06:05 PM

dude, you're the man. congrats on the quick turnaround!

4/29/2010 10:08:01 PM

For the record, I was wearing an olive shirt the day this happened...

4/29/2010 10:30:32 PM

No more NY stories, I feel like our bond is broken now.

Don't worry I got the fuck out as soon as I could too.

4/29/2010 10:46:52 PM

don't worry Kiwi

I still plan on hate-fucking you. Then hate-holding you tenderly

Good luck, man! I think that in six months when you have gotten over missing your old coworkers and met some new peeps, you will feel like you are in a better position.

Sorry to hear this EMCE

4/29/2010 11:30:05 PM

Coincidentally, I am leaving my current jerb at the end of the month and going to DCM as well (Tyson's Corner). Gots to start thinking where to live.

Maybe we could have a TWW lunch date.

4/30/2010 7:27:01 AM

congrats jeff on securing a new position so quickly. also fyi, although you said you want to stay at lockheed, i know that there's a division of northrop up in the baltimore area (near bwi) that swallows up as many systems engineers as they can. in the past 2 years theyve taken three of our systems folks. they can't tell me what they're doing, so it's obviously still on the defense side of things which you said you liked. just something to keep in mind.

4/30/2010 7:52:37 AM

aw man sorry to hear that. i always enjoyed hearing about your job.

4/30/2010 7:58:27 AM

yea man, nice that you're getting the heck out of upstate NY . We've talked about this before, but I was born in Elmira and I never go back that way unless I'm visiting my grandparents who still live there.

4/30/2010 8:01:13 AM

Def. not sad about leaving upstate NY. The author of the twilight zone series was from here... and... well... its easy to see where he drew his inspiration from. You see some weird stuff up here.

It's not very expensive to simply retrofit existing aircraft to accommodate the Afgan pilots :-/
