Offermania
On Friday I went to Cleveland for an interview with Ernst and Young. It went rather well I am intrigued at the thought of working on such an upscale project. It would be very good for my career. I would basically work there during the week and fly home on the weekends. I also received my first offer from another company on Friday. Then on Sunday I received another offer. I know that I will take at least one of those offers at minimum so today I am giving my two weeks notice. I'll probably submit it this afternoon. I will make my decision about what offer to take by Thursday morning. Sometimes I dread giving the 2 weeks notice. My last day will be Friday June 24th, and my first day will be Monday June 27th. I think I dread giving my 2 weeks notice here simply because I like the employees here. It is a little like breaking up with a girlfriend. There will be some hurt people simply because I have made a big impact. The weird thing is we had some people leave already and I have been giving interviews as well as going on interviews most days. So I can already recommend my replacement. I still have to go on some final interviews for 3 more companies on Tuesday, so in the end I could possibly be trying to decide between 6 different offers. They all have different things going for them so it will be hard. I haven't made a decision yet. I know some companies will be reading this weblog just by googling me. So if you are one, take note - I am open for anything, I haven't made my decision yet and this weblog is meant to be a funny view of my life. My work life is a different story. I am very professional at work and my attitude is top notch. I think it is obvious by my resume and interviews that I know what needs to be known and will get the job done. As for my language, if you googled BLML then you know I have created a language. I am actually working on that in my own time and have not yet released it to the internet. I have a web site set up at http://www.blml.org where I will release it. I have seen that most companies are interested in it and I can teach it to business analysts to speed up the Business Requirements process if needed. I have already taught people at the IRS how to use it in the requirements process. Anyway, I am excited at all of the offers I am getting and I know that wherever I go, there I'll be.
Thought of the Day
"For our next meal, do you think we should come here, or should we go someplace else? It has its pros and cons. On the one hand, here you're guaranteed a great meal. On the other hand..."
"Yeah, yeah, I know, this would be good but it would be the same. But if we go someplace else it would be different, but it might not be as good. It's a gamble. I get it!"

So, if you take a job in Cleveland or some other God awful place, are you going to fly back to DFW on Thursday nights for guys night?
We didn't do too much this weekend. I did yard work, had a few drinks, saw EP III (HEE HEE) ,watched Clone Wars season 2, and went to the Lewisville mall with the fam.

Well I wish you all the best Mr. Brian.. I do hope you end up staying in the area though especially since I just moved back here and am finally getting to catch up with you, Peety, and Mr. Turkentine...
If you end up in Cleveland I know a lot of spots since I had a year long consulting gig right outside of Medina, Ohio. Does that mean you'll become a Cleveland Browns fan over being a Cowboys fan?
Did you give your notice today?
