Well the guy hiring this position happened to be in my town for a conference, we met today and had a great 90 minute or so exchange. Taking a page from the great Burbuja I went armed with a polished resume, a detailed "success" list (including my recent MBA), and a couple of work samples. I came away feeling he was very impressed (said he was, and by all indications it was true). I left with a really good feeling that I could assimilate out there quite well. The job feels like it would be appropriately challenging. The increase in pay is substantial.
My parents have come around and at least indicate they are up for living at least part time out west, they get that this is a great opportunity. My wife and oldest daughter are ready to pack, the youngest is even looking at the positive side.
I have been invited to fly out, they want me to buy the tickets and they will reimburse me...sorta stinks, I just got back from a lengthy trip in January and graduation in Atlanta in February....I really don't have the caash laying around, but I suppose I will dig deep and make it happen....did I mention how much I loathe commercial air travel? Not a great flyer!
