I haven’t posted about this in the past, but I have been looking for a new job since about June. No real serious looking (i.e., trolling on Monster, etc.), but just keeping my eyes open to opportunities. Why was I looking? Well, it had to do with the company I was working for had been looking into outsourcing the IT department, including App Dev. Now, in August (or there about), it was announced that they wouldn’t outsource our group currently, but that the issue would be revisited within a year.
I was driving home the other night and heard on the radio that there had been a construction accident locally. The reporter was interviewing the Fire Chief who was describing what his crews had found when they arrived. They couldn’t help the man that was involved in the accident so they called the coroner. Now, this interview was being held before the Coroner had made an official announcement about the mans’ death.
My wife and I went to a Norah Jones concert on last Friday. I really like her music but the sound mixer they had at the concert should listen to one of her CDs. They put WAY to much volume on the electric guitars and it pretty much drowned out almost all the other instruments, and sometimes even Norah’s voice. Many of the higher notes were just plain jarring to hear.
