There has been a long stretch of my not writing blogs.\u00a0 It has been the longest stretch since I started this blog.\u00a0 It is not something I wanted, but with my old webhosting company and the problems I got out of the habit of doing it.\u00a0 Then trying to get caught up makes it difficult.<\/p>\n
Then to top that off I have been in a situation where I am undergoing a major life changing event.\u00a0 I was offered a contact job at Brian’s company.\u00a0 This was something I was expecting.\u00a0 Actually I was expecting a full-time job offer, but it is for one year.\u00a0 The thing is I would be working out of the Kirkland office.\u00a0 When I interviewed with them I was ready to move to the Seattle area, but lately that feeling has changed.<\/p>\n
I decided to take the offer, but I haven’t told anyone.\u00a0 So I went to Seattle for a visit, as far as anyone else knew.\u00a0 But some people were suspicious.\u00a0 Now, it is a lot more obvious as I have been working in Seattle for more than three weeks now.\u00a0 I haven’t been keeping the secret so much anymore.\u00a0 I have told some of the people in the Seattle area.\u00a0 I also told Ryan.\u00a0 During my second week the office manager came into my office and said he was offering me a full-time job.\u00a0 It would be doing something similiar to what I was doing, but I would be more of a tester\/developer.\u00a0 But I could work my way to doing dev full-time down the road.\u00a0 But it sounds like they are willing to let me learn on the job.<\/p>\n
I am going to learn some new technologies life Flex and Iron Phyton.\u00a0 I get to work from home on Friday’s so I will be going over to Pullman a lot.\u00a0 But I also plan on\u00a0staying home on some weekends.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Yesterday I told them I was going to take the full-time job offer.\u00a0\u00a0I have also done a couple projects that they are happy with already.\u00a0 So it is good that things\u00a0are going well for me right now.\u00a0 I am not going to make as much as I would like to make, but I figure I will\u00a0go in and work\u00a0hard and do a good job and earn a pay raise as I\u00a0show them I am worth it.<\/p>\n
So my plan is to try to hide it for another month and a half at the fire department.\u00a0 At some\u00a0point I am going to have to do something there.\u00a0 I don’t know\u00a0if I will have to quit or if we can work out some sort of\u00a0deal.\u00a0 I hope we can just work something out.\u00a0\u00a0I will cross that bridge when I come to it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Cooper pretty much knows that I am working in Seattle.\u00a0 He wants me to stay on there and just put in my hours to keep my commission.\u00a0 That is what I want to do as well.\u00a0 I love being a deputy.<\/p>\n
I am going to have to work something out with Pete as well.\u00a0 I let him know that I didn’t know what the future held, but I do want to be the next coroner.\u00a0 So I need to do what I have to in order to make that come true.\u00a0 I also need to make sure I stay up with my OTEP training for my EMT certification.<\/p>\n
For the last couple weeks I have been in Seattle Monday through Thursday night and then I drive to Pullman where I am until Sunday night.\u00a0 I am probably going to stay there on some Sunday nights and come back on Monday morning.\u00a0 But I have been playing all that by ear.<\/p>\n
So far I have been doing what I did last time I lived in Seattle.\u00a0 I work all day and then come home and do nothing until the next day at work.\u00a0 I want to start to find things to do, but I need to start to rekindle some of my old relationships with some of my friends.<\/p>\n
I am going to let the Sgt know at the marine patrol that I have my stuff with me and I am around a lot more so if they need someone in short notice that I should have some availability.\u00a0 But it sounds like I will be a very busy man at work as well.\u00a0 Once I start working as a FTE I will be working lots and lots of hours every week.\u00a0 So with my other activities I may have a hard time doing they hours they want me to.\u00a0 But right now it isn’t a big deal because all I do is sit around the house when I go home.<\/p>\n
It is also important that I start some sort of work out program.\u00a0 There is some workout equipment at the office building where I work and I have access to it.\u00a0 I need to take advantage of it.\u00a0 Maybe I can work out following work and get on the road around seven when the traffic isn’t as bad.<\/p>\n
Outside of that I have been a busy guy.\u00a0 I played in a co-ed fall league for softball with Spellman.\u00a0 I also played in a softball tournament this last weekend.\u00a0 We went three and out, but it was fun to play and it could be my last tournament with the Garden if I keep the job over here.\u00a0 That sucks because I do like the team and the guys I am playing with.\u00a0 Plus we picked up a ten-six-seven.\u00a0 We played another touranment with him.\u00a0 He is blonde and blue eyes.\u00a0 Plus he is very cool.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
