Changes at Work

Dang it. Another one of my team at work is jumping ship. Can't say that I blame him though, as the position that he's moving to is pretty much a dream job for him. It's going to be fun filling the position, as he's been with us for 6 years now. We just lost another senior developer last month, who decided to move back to the UK, so the timing is not the best, but not really something that can be avoided.

This will make work interesting, as the most senior person still on the team has been in the department for less than a year. He's a solid developer, though, and we've brought on two other programmers in the past year. We built a solid team over the past 6+ years, and we'll do so again.

The guy who is leaving is taking a Project Manager position at MSN. Darn you Bill Gates! It's a big opportunity for him, certainly more of an opportunity than he had here, as we're simply not a company the size of MSN/Microsoft and can't really compete with the offer on the table.

He's packing up and moving to Seattle in couple weeks. I wish him all the best in his new home, new job, and new responsibilities.

Go get 'em Aaron! :)
