Well, after a few months of unemployment, over 25 phone interviews and over 10 face-to-face interviews, I finally got a job!!!

I actually got two offers last week... one in Topeka, KS and one in Waukesha, WI.

I will be moving to Wisconsin to start my career in healthcare after working for over 13 years in manufacturing in Arkansas. The Kansas job was in manufacturing...

Any Milwaukee area Obners on here? I'm sure there are, I just haven't paid enough attention... ;-)

Thanks to everyone for all their kind words and thoughts during my job search.

Holy shit you're moving to the Shaw!

Good News: Busty lives in Milwaukee.

Bad News: Monty lives in Milwaukee.

Awesome! I'm happy to hear this. Take a trip to Madison and say hello to Barry Alvarez for me.

Nice work. If you wanted to work in heathcare, you should've looked to Nashville. But I hear Waukesha is great in the winter.

Milwaukee is my hometown, I'm now in Madison. Never really hung out in Waukesha, but it's close enough to the city. Hope your move goes well and best of luck in the career change.

Careful, or you'll put on some weight here...we don't mess around when it comes to food. Kopp's Frozen Custard, Oakland Gyros, Martino's Italian Beef, Conejitos....there's good restaurants too of course.

...and yeah, winter's are rough.

That's great news Scott! I know you're relieved beyond measure.

You mention a number of posh East-side & otherwise sceneasta-approximate (Kopp's, Conejitos) 'raunts, which makes me lament, once more, the burning of Pizza-Man. Total mother-fucker.

At least they still have Ma Fischer's.... Bwa-hahah.
