It's a massive pay cut from my last job, but after 8 months of NO pay (except the 2 months of substitute teaching) I'm thrilled to say yes to this one.

I start on Monday, and they're cool with me taking the Ski Trip and Desert Trip in March and April that we already paid for. I'll be able to be kilted here, fairly often, too....AND my job is literally steps away from the Beckman Bistro, with the best coffee on campus. I can have lunch with the Luminous Joan, she'll only be working about 300 yards away from me.

The job is tech support...some desktop, some server-side in the Beckman Center, a major research facility, at the Stanford Medical Center. Huzzah!
