I've been informed by e-mail that the we lost the project that was going to get me out of Moog.   Seems that the customer really liked my resume, so much that they wanted me now, not two months from now when my workload at Moog might allow a break.   None of the options we presented them - part time support, etc., was good enough.   They wanted all

Like your situation in that I'm having trouble getting traction on this move I want to make, but beyond that I think not so much. I'm not being put through hell, and my efforts do not go unappreciated.

If anything, I'm over-appreciated. Part of Moog's reluctance to free me to work for other customers is that they want me all to themselves. It's the precision controls company, BTW. No relation to the music people, unfortunately, or I'd be trying to move laterally ;)

Please do post up when you get a chance; I've been wondering how things are playing out for both you and Meltax. I'm sorry that things have seemingly deteriorated to the point where you couldn't hang on long enough to find other work.

I wonder if there's something about artistic minds that keep them from being able to work in concert. From what I've seen, it seems that the closer you are to the entertainment industry, the screwier the work environments get.

I haven't been anywhere near that scene since I was programming lighting controls at age 24. I go by my brother - a freelance stage technician who has worked on movies, stage productions, political conventions, and other stuff. Any my best friend, currently stage manager at one of the largest performance theaters in Buffalo. Between them they could enthrall me for hours with their stories (consensus is that dancers are the hardest people to work with).

You realize I'll have to see the movie now, to look for "Ami's prop". I'll need a photo or a screenshot please :)
