Went for my first (pseudo-) job interview today. I say pseudo because it appears the vast majority of jobs posted on craigslist here in Boston come by way of middleman placement services. No cost to me - which is good - but adds another step to getting a job. Also good, the guy I met with really liked me and feels confident that together we'll find something that suits me. Or, he just says that to all the boys....
Oh, and I did go in there for a specific position, not just to be placed on their "we'll call you when we've got something" board. Office/admin work at a local software company. Small, laid-back group who can pay me a nice chunk of change - which is good. If all goes as planned, I should be meeting with them directly early next week.
Temperature has dipped some 25-30 degrees since yesterday. We've got snow and 25-30 mph wind. Expecting 3-4 inches, but I'll bet it tops that. I thought snow in Payson, AZ had prepared me. I was wrong - which is bad. All this snow will likely turn to ice by this time tomorrow. Yay! St. Patrick's Day + drunks + ice = Wheeee!

Wow, snow and a job interview -- you really have moved. I really like software companies. They're full of smart interesting people doing odd things, and often lots of gamers too. I hope it works out!
I can remember snow drifts in Illinois, when I was a kid, that topped 15 feet... And up here, on Mt. Lassen in the winter there are permanent markers that show the rangers what the drifts piled up to: sometimes the markers are buried up to 85 feet!
I like looking at the snow, but I hate driving in it. Be careful -- but enjoy the adventure!
