As some of you may already know - I got laid off as the product of a reduction in workforce about 2 weeks ago from the company that brought me up here to begin with. I had decided to take a couple months off and live off of my severence and savings while I went on vacation or just sat around on my ass and do nothing....
I've had a couple interviews with Texas Instruments in the mean time, talked with Ratheyon, and found that I can stay up here and have my pick at either of those companies.... However.. that was until Samsung in Austin called me. They'll be taking me down to Austin next week for interviews, and if all goes well - there's a chance I may be moving BACK as soon as right after the meet that I've been planning - and anytime before June 9th.
That said - There are a couple of you who have wanted me to do some small jobs on your cars - you know who you are - I suggest we try and get this all done as quickly as possible. There's no telling who will give a better offer at this time between TI and Samsung - and I don't know where I'll be a month from now.
So far my schedule is as follows... Mark has dibs at our earliest convenience for me to add some goodies to his car - then the weekend of the 10th I'll be pulling gecko1's engine then dropping it into Reed Racer's car shortly there after hoplefully in time for her car to make it to the meet on the 18th.
