I know not many people will be effected by this piece of news, but I have just been offered and accepted a new position with another company. This is 12 months in the making when I began searching for other career openings outside of Caravan. And for the first time since I graduated from college, I am working inside the state of Indiana. I will not need to drive I-94 to get to work and after 2008, I will only have to fill out one state income tax form. Ahhh, good times.
Thanks to everyone who offered me support and advise when trying to make decisions and for finding job openings. Thanks to Dave who tried to get me into Rolls Royce, although I believe they did not want me there because they knew I would not be able to keep a secret of where all the cars are kept.
And thanks to John, aka fish, aka Henery Hawk ("I'm not a chicken, I'm a chicken hawk") for getting my feet wet within a manufacturing plant and out of a retail environment. I kind of wish I would have been able to stay longer with the company, but for reasons like sanity and the feeling of job accomplishment, I needed to move on. To Dolton, Gods Speed.
It appears my last day will be 6/15 and then I will fly down to KC to see my nephews and siblings that weekend. My first day for the new job is tentatively scheduled to be 6/25.
This summer right now is filled with concerts I would like to see. Today, Chris Cornell tickets go on sale, but I think I will have to pass because the show is on a Wednesday night in July and I will be working 4 in the morning probably by then. Hopefully, he will be playing in Indy on the weekend so I could see him play. Alice is touring again and hopefully releasing a DVD of a concert last year. Shinedown is playing in Milwaukee, but I think I will wait for them to get closer to the area. Tori Amos is supposed to tour. And I would always like to see Robert Randolph play a concert again.
Later people.

Good Luck to you!! I am sure you will love the commute but not sure about the hours. 4:00 a.m. comes mighty early these days!!
As Yogi said and I think it will apply to me, "It is getting later earlier."
It was so nice when Jason was working at KS Ave and we (meaning me) only had to fill out one state's tax form. Those were the good ol' days.
speaking of taxes, you get a tax break when you have a mortgage...
I foresee a house purchased within the next year. I am waiting for James to be a little older so he can help move.
You forgot to thank Elyse for annoying you to the point of no return which actually sparked the whole job search engine in the first place. Now I am left with no one to torment with at 2 inch dull pocket knife.
