Two's-day/ Finally Friday

Great news Chris!!!!

 

I'm happy.  Even if nothing comes of it, it's still an improvement over the last twelve miserable months.  I have friends in other places... if I can add this or that to my resume, there's always a chance I can get a better job somewhere else.  A friend's husband is the Big Kahuna for the State of Tennessee's WAN department (I have another friend/accquaintance that is a network security admin downtown).  He knows people that knows people, so networking with him is always eventful.  His wife works for Nissan as a DBA.

Do you want to stay in Nashville?

Mitsubishi is over in Blount County, and Panasonic is here at Forks of the River.

I like it here, but my resume is pretty thin at the moment.  If I can beef it up a little bit, I will probably move to wherever I can get a good job even if I have to move to Alaska.  That will probably be a couple years from now.  I'm not familiar with much of the state outside of Nashville and whatever I-40 passes through.  I did get lost in Van Buren county once.  Talk about sticks.

It's not bad here....but I have been here since '83. I probably would not voluntarily move here, as I'm really still a midwesterner at heart, and would go back given the opportunity.

It has been, however. a great place to raise my kids. Crime is relatively low...most murders are done by a person known to the victim, and not a lot of other crime.

Close to the mountains and less than 6 hrs to the SC Atlantic coast, 8 hrs to the FL Gulf coast.

Not sure what you are looking for, but you might go online and do some research for the area.

I have been considering Atlanta.  There's always a need for people, but it's a busy, crowded place.  There's always the option of moving to less-populated areas that need competent people.  I've always wanted to see the midwest/western US. 

I'm still planning on using my PTO time for this year to take a couple weeks off and see the country.  I've never been further west than St. Louis.
