As many of you know, I've been *coughs* "consulting" for a while. I thank you for your well wishes- as of Monday, I start my new job.

Upside, normal and regular cash flow.

Downside, I won't be here except for the weekends for a while if I can't get here on the company network during lunch.

So if I disappear starting Monday, don't worry, I'm not dead, and I'm not leaving. It might be a month, six weeks before I'm back to my regular patterns and posts, but I'll be keeping an eye on things when I can. *grins*

Oh, and Matt26, I promise to TRY to not make your life more interesting when get over there. *grins*

Congrats to you IR. I hope everything goes well in your new venture. I wish you good luck, not that you'll need it.

Yours truly,

Congrats, man! Consider it another (rather large, probably) step in your preparedness!

"...normal and regular cash flow..."

As long as you are talking about the cash flowing IN instead of OUT, that is a great deal. Enjoy...

That's great news! So, how long before you can afford a visit down to Texas?

Congrats and good luck! It has to make you feel a lot better having the job now with a possible recession on the way. It's probably going to get a lot tougher to find one.

Ok Ok. Enough with all the congrats! You abandon your pious post as king headhunter and leave us with no disciplinarian? Only to return (and probably in a good mood too) on weekends? All for the love of money? A miserable excuse at best.....

Well, allright.... congratulations (begrudgingly). But you'll be AWOL every day that you're not here. I am reporting this thread to the moderators.

No, I'm working for a private company.

I promise, if I do the LOX-enhanced hibachi, I'll be out of the county. *laughs*

*laughs* Are you sure you want that job? It means being cranky and old and prematurely bald.

ROFLAMO!!! I think JIM is volunteering as a headhunter (junior grade), and you and Blast will be around. And the mods will probably be glad to have me out of their hair for a while. *grins*
