man, it's been busy at work so i haven't been able to update my blog with the wedding stuff! oh well, most of you guys were at the wedding anyways, so you can check that entry periodically to see if i've updated it heh.
anyways, the good news is that my job is staying in san jose! woohoo, now i don't have to worry about my pension and how i plan on finding a new job! so yeah, sometime next year we're moving into the building across the street, and then sometime 2nd half of next year we'll be moving to the almaden research center which is little bit more south, it'll add about 10 minutes to my commute. it's at the top of a hill and the building is a lot nicer. so it'll be a nicer environment to work in. yesterday we took a tour of the building and ate in the cafeteria, i wish we could move earlier! they spent a lot of money making the building nice, i guess the researchers (all the phDers) get the VIP treatment. i wonder how they'll feel about all of us moving up there...oh well! i hope i get a window office!
actually, the execs wanted our group to move to tucson (that was their initial reaction) but they decided that we needed to be able to support manufacturing which is staying in sj, so they're letting us stay in sj. whew. but they are not hiring anymore people in sj, so if someone in sj leaves, the position will get filled in tucson. so the group in sj will shrink and shrink. in addition, in order to cut office costs, they requested our dept to select 7 people to work from home permanently, so there will only be about 15-20 that will move to the research center. my officemate was one of those chosen, so i'll be getting a new officemate!
tonight is my first day of class and i have class on sat. sucks. i'm happy that the new season of tv has started woohoo. i missed the first 2 episodes of the OC though. i'm researching options on how to record the thousands of shows i'm into, i need something where i can record 3 different channels at a time =P
