    The job is working for a circuit board manufacturer in sales. I will be the lone rep for the whole of NZ with head office in Melbourne, Australia.

    I know most of the customers already from my current job. My office is located in the middle of Christchurch, near all the great cafes etc and is a 1 bedroom apartment, so really cool.

    I start on 21st August. So now I'm off to buy new laptop, cell phone, car etc...

    Cheers and thanks for all of the encouragement and best wishes.

    Hmm if my office was a one bedroom apartment my wife would be VERY worried about what was going on there besides work lol.....there would be no convincing her.

    Gary,

    Congratulations. It's often said that the best time to find a job is when you already have one. Sometimes, being 'under the gun' is a good time as well.

    Gary,

    Cogratulations. Good things come to good people, or so I hear, I am still waiting.

    Congrats Gary,
    Rich, don't hold your breath (you are a New Yorker after all ).

    Ed,

    I hope you are not still a Cubs fan. That's like being a Jets fan (which I am). Except even the Jets won a championship this century.

    Dammit Rich,
    It hasn't been a hundred years yet. They won in 1908! It may not be this year, but I'm hoping for a world series before I die . I figure if the Red Sox can win, even the Cubs have a chance.
