October Rave (mfsoa)

[BobM]

Good luck Jerseyites with your remaining power woes. We were out for 4 days after the hurricane. Not a fun time at all.

Mike, hope the job situation turns around for you. Everything happens for a reason I believe and there are better things on the horizon for you, I'm sure.

[Triode Pete]

Mike - hope your power is restored soon...

Good Luck with your future endeavors... remember it is always easier to find a new job when you currently have a job... start looking now!

Like BobM says, "Everything happens for a reason"... it's destiny & a destiny you can help steer!

Cheers,
Pete

Mike,

I just stumbled on this thread and found out about your job situation. Really sorry to hear it; at least you have 18 months to find another position. The pharma industry is just getting worse and worse. Don't worry about the rave, hang in there, and good luck to you.

I have a friend who used to work for Ciba-Geigy (something like that), and got laid off twice.  He just got turned off, and now going around to sell real estate, which is not exactly the place to be.  It's just damn capitalism at its best and meanest.  These pharmas are "doing" drugs in cheap places.  I recently noticed that one of my prescription "drugs" was made in India....  There you have the answer.  So, we now have the Wall St. uprising.  That also is happening for a good reason perhaps.....

Good luck Mike.  Does your present (still) company provide any job replacement counseling or assistance.....?

Sorry to hear about the job situation, Mike.
.....the house is starting to smell like a campsite with all that wood burning......

You say that like it is a bad thing.

Great news!

Mike,

     Glad the power is back.  As for the job, American companies put no premium on loyalty anymore.  It's too bad and will cause problems down the road.  Fortunately you have great science skills and are very personable.  These should stand you well in the job search.  Good luck!!

Hey Mike, no pressure, but any chance of this happening in the next few months?

[mfsoa]

Yeah, now that Topround got AudioNotitis  I was thinking maybe March but we are having some company for the SBowl so I don't want to plan much past that. Domestic harmony and all that stuff...

If someone beats me to the punch, so be it...

It can still snow in March anyway
