The Weight: Take a load off Lawryde
I know I talk bad about work most(all) of the time, but now that I’m switching jobs in July, my current position is far more tolerable than it was.
I’ve got a few more designs left to release, and then I can just kick back and coast into my new position and grab my 6% raise.
I can do this with my eyes closed after 3.5 years of doing it, so I can listen to music, take my time, and relax.
I’m also taking some online training in hydraulics to prep for my new test job. I don’t particularly enjoy structured learning, but I do like to learn. There’s so much to learn: variable displacement pumps, motors, hydrostatic steering, hydraulic schematics, charge pumps, pilot actuated spool valves…
You can tattoo the nerd, but he’s still a nerdy geek on the inside.
I can still lay claim to being the baddest fucking geek out of the 94,593 people employed at Opposite of Dog.

Does this mean you get to go to the big Opposite of Dog area where they have the big-ass sandbox and drive around in the large devices designed & created at Opposite of Dog?
That'd be freakin' sweet.

Jason-
I can't look at your profile.
Enable my access man!
And yes, I get to be in a big sandbox, or mud pit depending on the weather.
I'm excited, and I'll still be working on tracked vehicles so it should be cool.

don't know how that jason thing got put there -- it's me.
I don't have a profile to my knowledge..
stupid fucking machines --
I'm in the same boat -- fuck bills and UHC -- charge me 3% more in tax.
Just don't clusterfuck it like Canada.
Tits to you on access to the giant sandbox.
