But a fun time was had with Jake and Zach this past very long weekend. It was good to connect with the rest of he family too, although uncle Lou did get on everyone's nerves by the end of it. Tuesday, we got all of the electrical work finished. Everything except for the extra outlet. I still have to mount the microwave (just got he bracket and ( Read more... )

Got the letter of intent from PrimaLoft today, they are offering 25% increase in salary, a 4% company match on 401k and a great bonus plan. They want me to start August 12! That isn't doable, I will propose starting September 3 and see if they can live with that. We need to find a place to live, get our crap sorted on this end, get my house ready ( Read more... )

Today I got an email from Vanessa at PrimaLoft expressing how much she like me, and that they should have a letter of intent to hire me away form TTI. I can't wait to see what the offer. I hope it's something I can accept. I am so tired of the crap at TTI.

Today, I had to cancel an order to Saati and transfer it to Absecon, no problem, I like ( Read more... )

So I got a follow up call from the headhunter, he is 95% sure I will be getting N offer from PrimaLoft this week or early next week! Fine by me!

Last Friday went as well as I could have hoped. I like the company, the folks I met, the leadership and direction. Christi and I even like a couple of locations around the Albany area to live! I am still hesitant over the amount of international travel, but according to Vanessa, my future boss should I go, they are very flexible on travel and time ( Read more... )

But I can't help myself. Yesterday, one of my lest favorite Mo-people went to the hospital because he wasn't feeling well. When he got there they told him he was on the verge of a major heart attack and sent him directly to Portland for open heart surgery.

I should feel remorse, but after all the free-loading and crap he has put the mill employees ( Read more... )

So the day started with me doing as little as possible at work. Went to the Flaky for lunch, because I forgot a knife and fork for my lunch from home. They had those coconut cupcakes that I love, love, love - so I was off the Paleo wagon. Then Jeff decides that we need to have cake to celebrate Tom making it a year at TTI. Still more refined ( Read more... )

Another rainy day! Another day of no training and no CrossFit, and the WoD looked like fun!

Still going try to get up early for an hour ride in the morning, that way if its not raining, I can gets some Trap shooting in and still get some training in too. Should it be raining in the afternoon, I will CrossFit.

Plans are set in motion to leave the mothership. Next Friday I have an interview in Albany, NY with PrimaLoft. The job will be lots of international travel, initially, but if the compensation is right, I'm gone. I'm not sure how much more of this place I can take. I'm mentally exhausted by lunch every fucking day. I haven't been sleeping well and ( Read more... )

So I was approached by an executive search firm right after a particularly brutal ass chewing back at the end of May ( the ass chewing ). This has lead to a very promising job in Albany, NY. As funny as it sounds, I would rather stay in Maine, and work for Rossi at Alberrie, however, if the offer comes and it makes sense financially, I'm off to ( Read more... )
