Well, I got an offer on a new job at Cherry Point.  Part of me is happy we don't need to move (yet), but I am also sad that we aren't going to VA or MD.  I was looking forward to getting closer to good practices and good people, not to mention civilization.  Amy is still going to look up there and we hope to be able to relocate in the future, but we shall see.

In the mean time she is starting to look around at houses locally.  Kill me.

I do realize that going to a new job is very much like when I moved and had to start at a new school as a kid.  Mostly I am worried about what I am walking into.  I am always nervous when I change jobs.   I feel like I have to prove myself with the new group, both socially and professionally.  And it really sucks as I have everything figured out with my old job.  However, I DO have a job and won't need to move (yet), which is better than a lot of good people are doing right now.

I don't know a lot about the new position yet, but I should find out soon.  I do know that I will be doing programming for another group of  Marines on base, but instead of pilots it will be a lot of the high level brass.  I will also not be on the flight line anymore, which completely sucks, as I love working there.  I also have to start from scratch in regards to vacation, which sucks.  I had three weeks built up before all of this, and now I am going to have to figure some stuff out to get to go to Pennsic.

I want to talk to my current boss about a graceful exit before I sign the agreement and send it in.   My big goal is to make sure that the squadron will be taken care of.  If it was just a company, business would be business, but I take care of my friends.
