Moving In

2005.06.30 16:37 Filed in: Personal
I am moving the stuff from the apartment to the house. My car thermometer reads 116˚ and I needed a break in the air conditioning.

The Nissan Frontier doesn't fit in the garage. I will have to remove the cabinets the previous owner built in to the front of the garage so I can pull the truck in.

2005.06.30 16:36 Filed in: Work
The interview for the Documentum job went well, I think. Intel will be closed Monday and Tuesday so no word is expected until WEdnesday at the earliest.

DHL wants an interview next week and Direct Alliance is ready to talk on Wednesday. All good things for the Job Search.

Modis Interview

2005.06.24 09:03 Filed in: Work
That went well. I don't think I will get the position for which I applied, but they have another position in mind. It was a vicious interview, three interviewers, rapid questions, kinda like the average user requirements meeting, only very short.

It's been Bloody! At least half are gone or on 90 days to gone. It's been an emotional ride. I was on IM with some survivors, some short timers and a lot of Ex-employees.

Assist Touch Interview

2005.06.22 16:24 Filed in: Work
Well, it was OK. The interviewer did not seem excited, but he didn't seem excitable, either. I don't really know what to expect.

The guy was from Boyertown, PA. Small world indeed!

Getting Fat

2005.06.21 17:26 Filed in: Plasticville
I am getting fat again. I have no scale to check but the belly looks larger! I really have to get back on the South Beach Diet again.

I noticed that Scottsdale seems a bit more body conscious than Norwalk was. It's almost New Canaan like in it's expectation of how everyone should look.

Intel?

2005.06.21 17:21 Filed in: Work
I have a lead on an Intel job. It's a Documentum administration / implementation position. I am well qualified, but I need to get my resumé read. I have a contact and I spruced up the document for them. Let's hope!

Purdue is Falling

2005.06.21 15:23 Filed in: Work
The news is slowly coming in about the Purdue staff reduction. Some close friends are getting hit already. This will not be pretty!

I am trying to keep in touch. I am also encouraging everyone to get LinkedIn so we can stay in touch and maybe get these folks some jobs!

Assist Technologies finally called. I was working with them before I left CT to get a job here in Scottsdale. They were too busy to interview me, but now they have the time. I am set for an interview tomorrow. Let's hope.
