I know it's off-topic, but I've been looking for a new job recently. I just finished an awesome phone interview with a company in Minnesota. Everybody keep your fingers crossed for me, okay?

I'm wishing good Karma your way!! I too am looking for a job right now and it is REALLY tough. I feel I'm qualified, but nobody is hiring. Good Luck!!!

**Bernie** · 12-18-2003, 01:07 AM

I'll keep my fingers crossed.

They grow A LOT of Potatoes in the rich black dirt of the northern Red River Valley.

In Maine they have to plant seeds with a shot gun to get around all the rocks!

Shuttermut, Where in MN are you looking at moving to? What field are you in?

That's right too. That's where all the frozen french fries come from.

CPNE- "Thats where all the frozen friench fries come from" ROTFL!

**Bernie** · 12-18-2003, 10:45 PM

So, how did it go ?

shuttermutt · 12-18-2003, 10:53 PM

Well, I just made arrangements to fly up to Eden Prairie (the city the company is in) to interview on the 28th of this month. I guess they think it went well, too! BTW, I'm a Software Quality Assurance Director by trade. In other words, I run the part of the software company that tests the software that the programmers write.

Good Job!!! If you get it be sure and keep me in mind if there are any openings in Houston for a Network Administartor for them. Let us know how it goes after the interview!!!
