Congratulations, hard work pays off sometimes. My son is taking programming in college, hoping he can get a decent job.

Programming is a great thing to get into! The opportunities are there. 

Thanks! :bc:

What's everyone doing this weekend? 

I was supposed to play in a golf tournament tomorrow but heavy rain is a certainty so it's canceled. Just hanging out on my patio enjoying the nice weather tonight. 

Sunday I am headed to the Black Hills for some work meetings. 

As some of you may recall I finished a tech certification this Spring that I was working on over the winter. The plan was to use it to secure a new job or a pay raise at my current job. About a month ago, I applied for a position at a regional ISP and was offered the job early this week at a substantial increase over what I'm making at my current job. I was all set to take that position until my current employer made me an offer that was close enough to keep me here. Their offer took me by surprise as only a couple guys on the team are making that amount and they have alot more time in the company than I do. Nice to see that me busting my ass has not gone unnoticed. Today I am reaping the rewards. :bc:

 

Wake up man!!!!  You are nothing but a slave.  😁

Yes, I knew with how my workplace is that only a competing offer was going to  give me a chance to get to the number I was aiming for. I would have gladly went to work for the other company though as well. 

Its nice when shit works out how you planned. :lol:

Congrats. Yes hard work pays off, as does programming. I’ve done quite a bit of programming over the years, doing some c# now actually. Regarding the weekend, took Friday afternoon off to finish a landscape stone wall and some other things before the rain came this morning.
