Hey gang, I start a new job tomorrow with training at the Embassy Suites at SFO for 3 days. A bit different from what I've done before, but seems interesting & looks like I'll learn a lot of useful stuff. Working for a company that does consulting services for small & medium businesses.
Also my next door neighbor Carol is starting a new job this week after being out of work almost 2 years (she got laid off by Merrill Lynch following the financial crisis). She's the one I mentioned before who's a liberal Iowa emigre, but whose father told her that we'd have a black president over his dead body. He passed away very shortly after Iowa approved gay marriage.
