......I got a new position at work. :banana: I interviewed two weeks ago and they offered the job to me today. I beat out 8 other people from within the company that interviewed. I'll go from a Product Manager in the Marketing Department to a Sales Analyst in the Sales Department. I'll report to the Executive VP of Sales. I've been with the company for 19 years, it will be a nice change of pace with more responsibility.

Dude, way to go!!!!!!! I sure hope that means more money for more beer hardware.
Seriously, it's good to see they recognized you and what you have done for 19 years with an upgrade. Next beer I drink will be a toast to you on a great job well done. :cheers:

Well of course we all gave a good reference when they called us on the Borg to see if you were a good pick.

I'll take a hop juice please. :D

Congrats Chris
"Filled with mingled cream and amber
I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious visions clamber
Through the chambers of my brain
-- Quaintest thoughts -- Queerest fancies
Come to life and fade away;
Who cares how time advances?
I am drinking ale today."
