Whilst I'm not a manager, it IS a salaried position, thus no OT.

2. So, what's your new job
Is it better or worse than the one you had before?

BTW, congratulations!

4. Much better.....
more interesting, room for advancement and a place with a training budget.

Since the scope of work involves certain "Three Letter Agencies" I'm afraid I can't go into too much details vis a vis job duties.

As the saying goes "I'd tell ya, but then I'd have to kill ya" :evilgrin:

6. The only downside?
By getting a job, I've improved Dubya's economic numbers.....

But MINE have markedly improved so what the hell, right? :)

7. Think of it this way. You might have a few extra bucks for the Dem.
candidate of your choice. In my case, I am waiting for the nominee to be chosen and that person will get any extra $$$ I have. Again, hugs, kisses and cheers to you.

10. They say the batboy will be throwing a lot of money into the economy
in time for it to look like an improvement before the next election. Nonetheless, hope we all hook a job when it happens. CONGRATULATIONS!!!

9. Funny thing about that is.....
I've been in the labor market fo rhte last 25 years or so.
The ONLY times in my life that I've EVER had a problem finding a job there has been a Bush in the White House.

Coincedence?

You be the judge.
