Okay, I have more questions from the millionaire phone calls to share, but don't have the time right now. I did finally qualified, but never got called.
My interview in Jersey went well. I do believe I have a great shot at the job. It's kinda hard to tell, though. The company is a big secure company that rarely, if ever, lays people off. The only negative is that I would have to relocate, but I'd be able to drive back on weekends and such. As it stands right now, I'm going to take the position if it's offered.
One thing about the trip was that up to the point I got to the airport on the return trip, it had gone off without a hitch, so, of course, the plane flight back, I got stuck in a middle seat, which I didn't complain about because I figured it'd be only a one hour flight. The weather in Philly was fine. The weather in Pittsburgh was fine. Apparently, the weather over Hershey, PA sucked enough to cause a 40+ wait to take off and cause a three hour delay. I was glad I brought my cd player, but I didn't bring my dvd player because of the shortness of my flights and I tried to pack light for a change. I did have three magazines, but I went through them fast, so I was stuck with the only reading material being the J2EE book I've been carrying around hoping to learn J2EE through osmosis. Okay, I've occasionally have read it and I know some J2EE from my last job, so I haven't been that lazy about it, but that's not the point. The point was, I was stuck on a plane between two strangers. I needed something better to take my mind off that a dry computer book. Atleast I got some music listening done. But next trip I go on, no matter how short, I'm taking the dvd player.
Atleast, the Pirates are finally going to play some games at home. Granted they have one of the best away records and a bad home record, but I want to go to some games before I have to move out of town. Especially while they have not one but two players with the last name Wilson in the top 10 NL batting average. That's scary. 20% of the top batters in the NL are not just Pirates, but Pirates named Wilson.
