Job sounds good, I'd even think about taking it if I wasn't the
wrong side on the pond.

I hope you are going to pay to going to pay the BBS the finders fee

PaulH

You can relocate... :-)

Finders fee? Oh, yeah, right!

- Jon

Tempting, how about you pay for me to come out for an
interview!

Funny story about Sunnyvale. My parents were both lifers in the Air Force. My mom was a BEE (Bio-Environmental Engineer, the chem cleanup people). When she retired, the only place that offered her the money that her job/education was worth was in Sunnyvale. She decided to rather stay 'retired' and just work part time rather than taking a job in California. Serious respect points were earned on that one

--edit
Oops, just read the part about 'don't reply unless you are interested'

What are you saying about California?

...and where did she decide to stay?

- Jon

My parents ended up staying where they were stationed when they retired - Offutt AFB, Bellevue, NE. Not my choice. They like that tornado alley/midwestern thing. Hell, we were stationed at Minot for 9 years. I never did figure out who they pissed off...

No offense, Bellevue NE is a very nice place (if you like that kind of thing), but it doesn't hold a candle to the Bay area...

Sorry, no flame war intended - you started this!

- Jon

I left there as soon as I could. I spent exactly 11 months in NE before leaving for school (out of state).

The Bay area is nice, but just too many damn people. I really like where I am at now. Nice weather (except for today), awesome landscape, and anything you could possibly want in a few hours drive max.

Jon,

If the position has not been filled, can you send me a contact phone number? I have a lady friend who fits the bill and meets your above requirements, *and* is looking for a job. I can recommend her with the highest accolades.

Why not Minot? I love that t-shirt!! And the airport, it's so HUGE!!!
Two gates, and the whole town is there to watch you deplane. Definitley not a connection city...

It's a small world.. one of my more obnoxious buddies is works over there... (Tom)

The bay area was definately over-crowded when I moved here last year; but it's equalized...
