Today I signed and returned Google's offer letter (I'm hoping the fax reached them), and officially gave notice at Macromedia.
I'll be at Macromedia for four more weeks; I start at Google on the 18th of October.
Scary. But I think it's the right thing to do.
Many thanks to all who provided help, comments, suggestions, and/or a sympathetic ear during this process.
ooh! let me be the first to congratulate you in this forum. I think people who work for google are sexy. 🙂
AWESOME! I hope you like it! If not, it’ll look kick-ass on your resume. 😉
Wow. Cool! Congratulations.
Oh, very cool! Congrats! I hope you’ll really enjoy it there!
Ooh… no time off in between?
Heck, Catherine O, Jed’s sexy no matter whom he works for.
*grins, amused at Jed blushing*
Congratulations, Jed — on the new job, I mean!
*grins merrily and goes to find some more ice cream. I’m clearly too punchy for my own good.*
Nifty!
Congrats, Jed! So, I’m gonna call you up whenever I need to search for something. Like my sunglasses. I can’t find my sunglasses.
Hee—thanks, all.
Greg: Your sunglasses are wedged between the couch cushions.
(I tried Googling for Greg’s sunglasses, but that didn’t help. Maybe you should ask Sandra if you can use the search engine from “Lost and Found“?)
…When I was a kid, my father used to say “My father and I know everything.” I would ask him a tough question, and he would say, “That’s one of the things my father knows.” In that spirit, my other recommendation about your sunglasses is to ask Kenny.
Hey, they were between the couch cushions! No wonder you got the job!
Oh, and I just read Sandra McDonald’s “Lost and Found.” That is a very fine story.
Yes, it is a fine story.
Congratulations, Jed! From the article you posted, it sounds like a really fun place to work!
Wow, that is a great story!
