Man, how things have changed...

...since my last entry. The whole job situation has shaken itself out, although not quite to my original expectations. But first, let me back up a little.

I've spent the past few years working as a contractor, on site at a large (unnamed) corporation's site here in Boise. Earlier this year they decided to make the job that I do a regular, full time position. So, of course I had to interview for the job that I was already doing (makes perfect sense), which consisted of telling the "interviewers" what I do on a regular basis. The real kicker came when I found out that, after all that, they decided to offer the job to someone else!

So now, I've had to train my replacement, while at the same time look for a new job. On one hand, its given me a little kick in the ass to get out there and find something else, but on the other hand, what a stupid freaking move! I'm going to walk out the door one day and never come back, and they'll be up shit creek without a paddle because, even after training the replacement, I'm still the only one who really knows how to do the job.

Sucks to be them.

Do I feel bad about thinking that way? You decide...
